were dug, snow depth was measured at about 600points and ablation was measured on 30 stakes
evenly distri uted on the glacier (Liestøl 1967).Based on experience of the snow pattern, the ob-

and snow on higher ground, especially in the North. It is not possible yet to predict the actual path of the low-pressure and hence it is not possible to say which area of the country will be most affected.
Readers are encouraged to check the updated text forecast regularly. For the time being the forecast for the next few days is such:
On Thursday: Southerly wind 5 to 10 m/s and some rain
