For the Norwegian Trekkers

Have a look at the post an hour or so ago on uk.sci.weather from Bjørn
Sørheim. Sounds pretty dodgy out there this winter, even the locals are
commenting on this!

Heh Heh Heh..... There's a newsgroup where people post daily weather
reports from their ickle weather stations.... how proud they must
be......

You my mock, but seriously many are highly qualified/massively experienced
current or retired meterologists. A few keen amateurs too but again their
forecasting track record is on the whole so much better than the twats they
put on the tv.

A little flooding after a recent change to westerlies and milder
weather, which will be over in a couple of days. Nowhere near the road
to the North.

I'm sure the trekkers are more interested in monitoring the conditions
where they are heading, e.g. here: <tinyurl.com/RoadWebcam-No>

 

This is the one I've been looking at:

Christ! On some of those cams, you can't even see where the road is
_located_!
I think the studs may come in handy.

A commercial site's link to the same webcams, with many links to the
"vegvesen.no" site.

How do you find the status reports in Norwegian? E.g. "Snø- og isdekke.
Fare for elg."

 

Chrome

 

"Snow in the ice deck. Elks offering cheap lifts"

 

Perhaps better translation than the original Google got it nearly
right with "Risk of moose" (wrong subspecies).

If the snow should get too deep, it might perhaps better to try and
hitch a hike with this fellow <tinyurl.com/Local4x4>

 

I notice a total lack of motorcycles on any of those pictures.

 

Try a site with some English translation.

But the Norwegian Automobile Association use covered wagons ;-)

 

So did the American settlers.

 

They were only riding Indians.

 

Gunning them down the trail.
