    Damn there are some negative people in this thread.. depending on which weather service you use, it looks ok or half-bad. This is not an ordinary situation, but it's the one we have to work with.

    + Plenty of minus degrees at Likenäs, Östmark and Kirkenaer in the next couple of days, according to weather services. Then a couple of days of +1-2 degrees, and then back to -3 to -5 for the rally week. These three towns are all close to friday and sunday stages.
    Ground frost and snow are present in all stages these two days. (EDIT, expect Torsby, of course) These should all be perfectly capable of being run, if weather services are correct.

    - The trouble is saturday, where they need to water plenty the next four days, where temps will be -2 to -5 during the nights, to deepen ground frost and to make it last during warmer days in the weekend, and then back to -1 to -4 during nights at rally weekend. These will be difficult to keep maintained, and maybe they will be driven only once, who knows.

    I say 25% chance to be run completely, and 75% chance to be run maybe a little shortened, due to saturday "situation"...

    The forecasts I'm looking at don't show any minus degrees (or maybe -1°C here and there) in the rally area after tomorrow. There's also going to be some rain on the weekend.

    Like I've said before, I think the four northmost stages (Hof-Finnskog, Finnskogen, Nyckelvattnet and Likenäs) are fine, but the rest are uncertain.

    So they will drive the same route on friday and saturday ?

    Either way I am happy if they are able to run it. My weather service still says really gloom stuff about it, but if fia and others say it is ok I count on them.
