Several accidents due to icy roads have already occurred in the northern counties over the weekend and now SMHI warns that it will get worse.

Rain has fallen on cold roads and can cause sudden ice slips.

There is also a local risk of freezing rain when a snowfall area over northern Norrland gradually turns into rain from the south.

Especially along the coast, the rain can fall on cold roads and cause sudden ice slides, according to SMHI.
