Storm Jakob has wreaked havoc across Sweden, following its destructive path through Norway.

The storm brought heavy winds and wet snow, causing significant disruptions in transportation and power supply.

Key train lines, including Linköping-Kalmar and Borås-Varberg, have been shut down due to fallen trees and other obstacles.

The Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI) issued yellow warnings for strong gusts and snow showers, particularly affecting southern Sweden and the mountainous regions.

Over 12,000 households, mainly in Kalmar and Kronoberg counties, experienced power outages, with further disruptions anticipated.

Emergency services are on high alert, especially in Östergötland, Södermanland, and Roslagen, as the storm continues to move across the country.

While conditions are expected to improve by Saturday, caution is advised as the storm's remnants linger.
