A severe snowstorm continues to grip Sweden's eastern coast, causing significant disruptions in transportation.

The Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI) has issued multiple weather warnings, with orange alerts in place for areas like Gävleborgs län until Thursday evening.

Heavy snowfall and strong winds have led to hazardous road conditions, prompting authorities to advise residents to stay home if possible.

In Uppsala, city buses have been suspended, and train services face delays due to snow-covered tracks and switch malfunctions.

Thousands of households along the coast are experiencing power outages, with some expected to last until Thursday morning.

Emergency services are on high alert, with snowplows and bandwagons deployed to manage the situation.

Commuters are urged to monitor local weather updates and travel advisories closely.
