CLIMATE IN FINLAND

The picture of Finland can now and then be overstated with moose and polar bears wandering the avenues while generous Finns swim in the solidifying Baltic. Honestly, it's a modern and hip nation, yet the seasons (and our adoration for sauna) are genuine. We Finns take extraordinary pride in our four seasons, every one of a kind and unique.

SUMMER

Goodness, how we adore our long summer evenings! The late spring in Finland might be short, yet we beyond any doubt know how to love it. The warm climate and sunshine convey happiness to all, and a sun that declines to set throws its own enchantment sparkle over this season. North of the Arctic Circle, the midnight sun remains consistently over the skyline from early June to early July, yet even in the southern parts of the nation summer evenings are short and brilliant. The temperature regularly rises to +20 °C and can once in a while astonish us with coming to above +30°C.

This season most Finns have their vacation to splash up the sun, invest energy with their friends and family, resign to their mid year lodges, go to celebrations and simply appreciate life. The infrequent blustery days are the ideal time to warm up the sauna or get a book that has been holding up to be perused.

Comfortable up with some tea, draw out the candles and fluffy fleece socks as it's getting nippy outside!
The days are short, however snow carries with it an invited whiteness and a touch of additional light. Northern Finland is secured with snow from November to April, however in the south it as a rule arrives somewhat later, shifting in sum starting with one year then onto the next.
North of the Arctic Circle, there's a period known as the polar night, when the sun does not transcend the skyline by any means. In south, the most brief day is around 6 hours in length.

FALL AND SPRING

Try not to disparage fall and spring. They might be transitional seasons with a blustery notoriety, yet are no outsiders to sunnier circumstances either. The climate is hard to anticipate as it differs a great deal starting with one year then onto the next, and even from everyday.

A certain something however dependably remains constant: there is something exceptionally unique in the steadily expanding daylight and warmth of late-winter. It carries with it softening snow, sprouting leaves, and the fowls that are at last heading home. So also, in spite of the fact that fall brings the obscuring days and cooling climate, it is likewise a period of lovely hues as the leaves in the trees turn brilliant yellow, orange, and red.
