Unseasonal cold and up to 10cm of snow in Skåne, Blekinge, Kronoberg, Halland and Kalmar.

In Örebro, the mercury dropped to -14C, making it the coldest April night since 1944, according to P4 Örebro.

In Karlstad, Sweden’s meteorological institute SMHI said temperatures reached -9C, the coldest April night since 1985.

Meanwhile, the -17C reading in Floda, Södermanland, made it the coldest night since the local weather station was set up in 1995.

It is unusual for temperatures to fall below -10C in southern Sweden during spring nights.

On Easter Sunday, southern Sweden was bracing for snow and temperatures a few degrees above zero, while the north of the country will remain below freezing.
