We're finally getting some winter weather here and I see a big portion of the US is also experiencing blizzard conditions!
It's freezing cold outside, -14C and windy. I can't believe it's going to snow on top of that.
"A really strong storm low pressure is approaching from the Baltics on Monday," Yle meteorologist Matti Huutonen said on Sunday afternoon.
"North-easterly winds will become gusts in southern and central parts of the country during the day. That, combined with temperatures of about 10 degrees below zero, makes the weather feel very cold, easily corresponding to -20 degrees," he said.
On the Gulf of Finland, winds may reach severe gale force, with sustained averages over 21 metres per second. Heavy snowfall is expected over large areas of southern and central Finland from Monday evening.
That's the wind speed in m/s.
23 meter per second = 51.45 mph
The Swedish coast (to the left) is going to get hit with the lake effect snow cannon!
I can picture you now...wrapped up in fleece blanket. In a beanbag chair in front of roaring fireplace..sipping hot chocolate with chocolate covered candycane and a fluffy kitty sleeping on a windowsill. Warm bread baking in oven, beef stew bubbling in crockpot
