 <\/p>\n

The Estonian Environment Agency has issued a level 2 \u201cdangerous\u201d weather warning for heavy snow and blizzard conditions for this evening and tomorrow morning.<\/p>\n

Early this evening heavy snow and sleet is expected to begin falling on the Estonian islands of Saaremaa and Hiiumaa. Winds are also expected to gust up to 30 m\/s, creating dangerous blizzard conditions.<\/p>\n

Late in the evening, the same conditions are expected to reach the mainland in L\u00e4\u00e4nemaa, P\u00e4rnumaa, and Harjumaa. However, the winds are expected to be a little lighter with gusts reaching 20-25 m\/s.<\/p>\n

Throughout the night and into the early morning, the snow and blizzard conditions are expected to spread across the country, leaving behind 7-12 cm of snow (up to 15 cm may be possible in Southwestern Estonia).<\/p>\n

The snow is expected to give way to sleet and rain on Thursday, leading to slippery and dangerous driving conditions.<\/p>\n
