After a colder weekend, it’s about to get warmer. (The highest fells in Lapland received a snow covering on Saturday. A mild frosty night was recorded in many parts of the country on the night between Saturday and Sunday.)

On Monday, the temperatures are staying between 12 and 16 degrees Celsius in many parts (between 7 and 12 degrees in Lapland), and on Tuesday the temperatures are likely to become a few degrees warmer in the southern and western parts.

Wednesday is rainier across the country. But as soon as the clouds start scattering, the warm sunshine is going to rise the mercury to about 18 degrees in the southern parts.

The remaining week is sunny in the forecast.
