Kristinestad, January

This winter has been strange so far in Finland. The summer was extremely hot and dry in Finland and the autumn was really wet and long.

The winter turned to be really cold finally in February and the sea got frozen.

According the newspaper last January was unusually warm. Last time when January broke the heat regord was 2002. This year January was 4,5 celsius degrees higher than average. The collected data starts from 1880.
