snowing again


Hi everybody,

The weather forecast says, that tomorrow will be a very windy and even stormy day especially at the sea in front of Helsinki. In addition we’ll get just more and more snow… Basicly this means, that it will be even more freezy than now on Suomenlinna. If the temperarute is around 15-17 degrees minus and the wind is strong and stormy, the circumstances outside are as if there would be over 30 degrees minus. That’s very cold, so you have to wear a lot of clothes if you need to go out.

In addition the wind blows the snow everywhere, even into the halls. The front doors are a bit cranky and the snow comes in under them. Please check that front doors are properly closed all the time. You can also put a carpet in front of the door so that it blocks open space under the door. Then the snow and wind can’t blow in.

I’ll be away from the island during the weekend and won’t have any access to my email, but in urgent matters please call or text.

Have a good weekend, don’t freeze out!
Hanna-Mari
