As Christmas approaches, Sweden braces for extreme weather conditions, with both Storm Pia and a new weather system causing disruptions.

Storm Pia, currently wreaking havoc in Norway with hurricane winds, is expected to hit Sweden soon, causing significant disruptions to travel and potential damage to properties.

With a forecast of snow, sleet, sudden ice, and wind, the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI) has issued multiple warnings, urging citizens to prepare and be cautious.

The weather is likely to affect road, rail, and air travel, causing delays and cancellations.

On Christmas Day, more stormy weather is expected along the west coast.
