The average temperature difference between the coldest month and the warmest is only 10–15 °C (18–27 °F) in coastal areas; some lighthouses have a yearly amplitude of just 10 °C (18 °F), such as Svinøy in Herøy Municipality with a coldest month of 3.7 °C (38.7 °F).
Climate is defined by the World Meteorological Organization as the average weather over a 30-year period. [1] The North Atlantic Current moderates Svalbard's temperatures, particularly during winter, giving it up to 20 °C (36 °F) higher winter temperature than similar latitudes in continental Russia and Canada. This keeps the surrounding ...
In January, the average temperature in Norway is somewhere in between −6 °C (21 °F) and 3 °C (37 °F). [2] Like neighboring Norway, Finland averages −6 °C (21 °F) to 1 °C (34 °F) in the month of January. [2] Finnish areas north of the Arctic Circle rarely see the sun rise, due to the natural phenomenon of the polar night. [7]
This is a list of countries and sovereign states by temperature. Average yearly temperature is calculated by averaging the minimum and maximum daily temperatures in the country, averaged for the years 1991 – 2020, from World Bank Group , derived from raw gridded climatologies from the Climatic Research Unit .
Climate zones Norway; green is oceanic climate (-3C (27F) isotherm coldest month dividing oceanic (green) from continental climate (dark blue). This area has a growing season lasting 150–240 days (24-hr mean 5 °C threshold) and reliable precipitation, from 870 to 3,000 millimetres (34 to 118 in).
The Oslofjord has Norway's highest all year temperature: 7.5 °C (45.5 °F). February is the coldest month in the fjord with −1.3 °C (29.7 °F), while July normally reaches 17.2 °C (63.0 °F). The islands in the middle of the fjord are among Norway's warmest with high summer temperatures and moderate winters.
This list of Norwegian fjords shows many of the fjords in Norway. In total, there are about 1,190 fjords in Norway and the Svalbard islands. The sortable list ...
A reduction of 2-3 month is estimated for low-elevation and coastal areas in west, mid and north Norway (when comparing current (1961-1990) and future climate data (2071-2100)). [41] As winters become shorter, snowfall in autumn and spring will reduce.
