Sweden is bracing for a significant weather shift as the unusually mild October gives way to colder conditions.

Meteorologists predict a drop in temperatures across the country, with the arrival of chilly air and potential snowfall.

The upcoming autumn break will see a mix of weather patterns, starting with sunny spells but quickly turning to wind and snow, particularly in the north.

Southern Sweden will experience rain and blustery conditions, while northern regions face snow and icy roads.

As Halloween approaches, a deep low-pressure system is expected to bring more unsettled weather, with warnings for wind and snow likely.

Despite the cold snap, November is anticipated to be warmer than usual, offering a brief respite from the chill.
