Miscellaneous: Current weather and historical graphical data on average temperature and rainfall among other things can be researched using the Åbo Akademi University weather service.

This is what the most internet savy locals use as their one -source weather resource when planning what to wear etc. :)

One warning though: Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: well if you're around in these temperatures, you should be wearing your whole closet on you :)) the best materials are cotton against the skin in couple of layers, and on that wool clothes, and then the outside clothes with 'thinsulate' or alike. in this picture i am wearing 3 layers of clothes under these outside clothes :)) under your hat its good to have another one in 'commando' style which will protect you inhaling the cold air. after a while outside you will notice that your eyelashes are all covered in ice :))kinda funny when they start melting inside again :)) you'll really feel you've been on an arctic adventure!!!

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: It started to get really cold by the end of October-early November...so definitely bring lots of sweaters, a warm jacket, gloves, and scarf if you visit around this time.
