Aftermath of Category 5 Cyclone Harold in Vanuatu – Apr. 7, 2020
Prime Minister Frank Bainimarama confirmed Harold caused extensive damage in Fiji. According to the National Disaster Management Office (NDMO), many parts of Ba Town were inundated and the Nasivi River in Tauva had become swollen.
Anumber of snowfall records tumbled across Norway, particularly its northern region, over the weekend. According to state meteorologist Eirik Samuelsen, Northern Norway has been practically buried by snow all throughout the season. With more heavy snow expected later in the week, this season is likely to become Tromso’s snowiest.
While people in the south enjoyed the cool weather in the past week, the residents in the north shivered through the cold and struggled with the heavy snow.
Official measurements in the northern municipality of Tromso said 30 cm (12 inches) settled in the area on Sunday alone, April 5, 2020.
There were huge local differences, however, saidSamuelsen. “Here where I live, on Kvaloya, it came in more than that.”
In Breivikeidet, Tromso, almost 1.2 m (4 feet) of snow had accumulated from Sunday to Monday, April 5 to 6. “I have never experienced so much snow in one day,” he added.
In Tromso, 6.5 m (21.3 feet) of snow has accumulated this season so far, the highest since the 1999-2000 winter season.

Blizzard conditions were felt across much of Iceland over the weekend. Up to 1.5 m (5 feet) of snow fell in one day, engulfing residential areas and vehicles, while very strong winds up to 111 km/h (69 mph) and near-zero visibility were reported on the coast.
In Hveragerdi, Southwest Iceland, many residents had to dig themselves out of their homes after ‘the largest snow they had ever seen in their town.’
Nearly 1.5 m (5 feet) of snow fell in one day, resulting in total whiteout conditions. In Sigluforder, North Iceland, cars were also buried in snow.
According to meteorologist Einar Sveinbjornsson at the Weather Watch, this was the most widespread severe weather event of the season.
“This is perhaps the worst weather, given how extensive it was and given how many territories it affected,” Sveinbjornsson said.
