Heavy rainstorm
A heavy rainstorm is moving in from the south on Wednesday. The Jutland peninsula, which contains Denmark's mainland regions, will be particularly exposed to rain and strong winds.
The Danish Meteorological Insitute (DMI) has issued a warning for heavy rain, which applies to all of Jutland and Funen island, as well as the surrounding islands.
The warning will remain in place until Thursday. The wind could be very strong, especially in Southern Jutland, and later up along the east coast of Jutland.
The rain will pass over the whole country but will be strongest in the western part of Denmark. The temperature on Wednesday will range between 13 and 18 degrees.

Wolt couriers entitled to insurance against accidents at work
In the future, Wolt will have to ensure that their light-blue couriers, who deliver pasta dishes, pizza and burgers, are covered by statutory insurance against accidents at work.
The information was announced in a decision from the Labour Market Insurance (AES) authority, and the decision has a retroactive effect.
That means that the couriers who have been injured in recent years are entitled to compensation, which the delivery service must pay for.
However, Wolt can decide to take the case to court and not comply until a final ruling on the issue is passed, which could take years.
