Stricter weather warning for the county

SMHI issued a new warning for the Jämtland mountains regarding "Rainfall-like rain".

The warning is thus sharpened from yellow to orange.

SMHI warns that large amounts of rain are expected, which could lead to flooded roads.

Is it safe to let the child go to school tomorrow?

It will be really messy weather tomorrow with rain, wet snow and occasionally strong winds.

In Strömsund, the municipality has taken anti-slip measures, where there is still a yellow warning, a lower warning than the orange one.

But so far there is no decision that school children should stay home from school.

This is what security coordinator Sidney Christensen says when SVT asks him the question.

- We have just had a collaboration meeting with SMHI and right now there is no such decision.

But we will follow the situation and see if there is any need for a changed decision.
