What are winters like in Finland? Do they compare with the winters where I live? (Translation in post)

1. Is that Murmansk? We can have -30° freezes, sometimes even more, but they’re rare outside Lapland and kinda rare there too -20° is more common. And the climate gets some warmth from the Gulf stream. Coastal areas are more windy.

2. Finland is a country, not a point. Winters in Lapland are way different from winters by the sea in the south. If you live in Siberia, Finland is warmer in the winter

3. Even as much as we like to brag with sisu and recistance for extreme cold, we do not have such temperarures commonly even in Lapland.

   Even if rare, not impossible though. Temperatures that low in Lapland would predict around -20 to -30 degrees in south.

4. Finnish winters are more quiet than your winters there.
