The recent monthly weather forecast suggests that meteorological spring has started across large areas of Finland, as reported in Foreca's weather blog. This marks a significant shift, as temperatures in March have largely remained above zero in many locations, indicating a more temperate climate. Lapland, however, is expected to experience more variability in weather conditions over the coming weeks, contrasting with the southern and central regions where temperatures may rise significantly.

The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) also predicts that the next four weeks will be warmer than usual. On Friday, areas in southern and central Finland are likely to enjoy sunshine, with temperatures potentially reaching around +10 degrees Celsius. In the northern regions, temperatures are expected to fluctuate between 1 and 7 degrees Celsius, showing that while spring may be on the horizon, winter's remnants are still present.

As the month progresses, the forecast indicates variable weather patterns for the following week, with expectations of slightly wetter conditions than normal for this time of year. Southern Finland may experience rain or sunny spells, while Lapland's temperatures will hover around freezing, with possible snow showers. The upcoming week is anticipated to be warmer than average, but if rain occurs, temperatures may dip below five degrees Celsius, showcasing the unpredictability of early spring weather in Finland.
