I’m actually surprised snow is unusual in the spring in Helsinki.
Helsinki yes, Finland no.
Fair enough. I associate Finland with snow like it’s some sort of European Hoth.
I got a chuckle from the line:
We’ve also got snow in Montreal today… it’s nearly fucking May.
A takatalvi (literally “backwinter”, it means that when you think it’s spring but then winter weather comes back because fuck you) or two is common, but they usually don’t last as long, occur in March or early April, and ddon’t have nearly as much snow.
