- On Wednesday it will be 20 degrees in Götaland and on Thursday up to 25 degrees in one of those heat holes - maybe Målilla, Växjö and Kalmar, says Tora Tomasdottir.

The temperature is also expected to rise in the north.

- In the north it will not be as hot but it will be significantly warmer than today, Monday.

A low pressure pulls in

However, the heat is not here to stay.

Already at the end of the week, a low pressure pulls in over large parts of the country.

- On Thursday there will be a few showers, especially in Svealand, and then the temperature drops again.
