Southern Finland experiences unusually warm weather for early November. Daytime temperatures reach nearly ten degrees Celsius higher than typical for this period. Nighttime temperatures also remain exceptionally mild.
On Monday, Southern Finland sees temperatures around 10°C. By Wednesday and Thursday, temperatures could climb to 12°C. This represents 7-8 degrees above normal seasonal averages.
Meteorologist Tuukka Keränen from the Finnish Meteorological Institute said temperatures usually measure just a few degrees in early November. The region typically experiences much colder conditions during this period.
The warm spell continues throughout the week. Night temperatures in Southern Finland stay above 10°C in some areas until midweek.
Skies remain mostly cloudy across the country. Some breaks in cloud cover may occur along the western coast on Monday, allowing brief sunshine.
Light drizzle appears possible at times. A rain system moves across Finland from the west on Tuesday, though rainfall amounts stay minimal.
Temperatures gradually decrease after midweek, according to weather officials. Northern Finland experiences temperatures around freezing or slightly below during daytime hours.
First snow has already fallen in Northern and Central Lapland but mostly melted. Meteorologists cannot yet predict when first snow will reach Southern Finland.
This extended autumn warmth provides temporary relief from typical November chill. The unusual weather pattern demonstrates how seasonal norms are becoming less predictable across the Nordic region.
