Finland is expected to see continued swings between sunshine, showers and warmer-than-average temperatures over the next two weeks, with forecasters pointing to a possible shift towards more settled conditions after Midsummer.
The latest monthly outlook from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), analysed by meteorologist Joonas Koskela in the Foreca weather blog, indicates that temperatures across Finland are likely to remain above seasonal norms through much of June despite periods of unsettled weather.
The forecast suggests that the week beginning 8 June will bring frequent rain showers across different parts of the country. While rainfall is expected on most days, temperatures are forecast to remain above average nationwide.
