As the holiday season approaches, Swedish authorities are warning drivers to prepare for challenging road conditions.

The Swedish Transport Administration predicts heavy traffic on key routes, especially today, Friday, which is expected to be the busiest travel day.

Meteorologists from SMHI caution that icy roads and unpredictable weather could make driving hazardous.

While some areas may see snow, much of the country will experience milder temperatures, with rain instead of snow in southern regions.

Travelers are advised to plan their journeys carefully, avoid peak times, and stay updated on weather forecasts.

Police also recommend checking vehicles for winter readiness to ensure safe travels.
