A milder winter than usual is expected in Finland
Published
According to the latest seasonal forecast, Finland is likely to face a noticeably milder winter than usual. The forecast suggests that temperatures during the winter will on average be higher than the long-term mean.
Winter in Finland is usually long and cold, so milder weather may affect many aspects of everyday life. For example, heating costs may be lower, and there may be fewer frosts than usual. On the other hand, the duration and amount of snow cover may also change.
Seasonal forecasts describe the general trend of the winter, but they do not predict the exact weather for each day. The weather can therefore vary a great deal even during a mild winter, and individual cold spells may still occur. Forecasts may also change as more information becomes available closer to winter.
Experts advise people to follow weather bulletins before travelling and spending time outdoors. More detailed forecasts can be found on the website of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
