I remember reading about this transport in our local newspaper.
That's the Typhoon involved in the mid-air collision with a Learjet during a targeting exercise, rsulting in the death of the Learjet crew.

The truck was traveling with about 80 kph if i remember correct and had to pull to the side every few kilometers to let the following traffic pass.

“Close” only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and tactical nuclear weapons.
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error

Normally we would have around 15-20 degree Celsius here in Norway at this time...

But instead there are so much snow in some areas in Norway, that they have to search for the summer ski facility... they are all, under snow, at the worst.

yup! and at this place they had to remove a lot of snow, just to find the car road again...

Now this is an summer ski center, but normally at this time of year, there would only be 1.5 - 2 meter with snow, and around 2-10 degrees Celsius (bellow 0 during night) at this place. But last time i checked it was between 7 to 16 meters with snow... Summer is coming late this year.

A woman in Norway received this message from her bank, when she wanted to transfer 200 Norwegian krone

The message says (google.translate):
There is no cover for the amount.
Balance on the card MasterCard is
-79.228.163.000.000.000.000.000.000.000,00
greeting DNB
And as someone that described this amount in text, in the comment are at the "Web page for news":
79 kvadrilliarder, 228 quadrillion and 163 trillion.
Mind = blown.

How many year do you need to pay down that amount of money?

exchange rate:
- 1,00 USD = 7,76 NOK
- 1,00 EUR = 8,72 NOK
- 1,00 GBP = 11,89 NOK
