Significant snowfall is anticipated across various regions in Finland as the winter season intensifies. Meteorologist Joanna Rinne from Foreca reports that freezing temperatures and potential for snow will characterize the weather in the coming week. Existing high-pressure systems are weakening, paving the way for incoming low-pressure systems from the west which could further increase snowfall in these areas.

The snowfall that began in southern and central Finland on Tuesday is expected to continue into Wednesday, albeit with less intensity. Foreca predicts that by the end of Wednesday, snow accumulations will range from 2 to 5 centimeters across the affected regions. This snow may create challenging driving conditions as families prepare for the upcoming winter break for schoolchildren.

With no forecasted temperatures exceeding zero and the potential for harsher cold spells, communities should prepare for the impacts of winter weather. The article highlights the necessity for caution while traveling, especially during this time when many families are likely to be on the roads for holiday festivities and vacations.
