DollThanks for your search, so it is not as cold as I thought but still cooler than Turkey.
Oh yes, of course Finland is colder than Turkey. You are closer to the equator. However, the Gulf Stream provides warm weather for Scandinavia - and actually much of Europe. Take New York, for example. There are no palm-trees in New York and subzero temperatures are not uncommon in winter. Nice in southern France is situated further north than New York but palm-trees grow there.
Summer days can be quite cold in Finland if we have northerly winds for a few days. Fortunately that doesn't happen very often. One factor that is conducive to warm weather is our distance from the Atlantic. Areas that are very close to it, like Norway and the British Isles, tend to be cooler in summertime because the ocean water never becomes very warm even in summer. Especially on windy days when there is a strong wind from a cold sea, the weather cannot obviously be particularly warm. Southern and central Finland is warmer in summer than central England, and considerably warmer than Ireland. Our winters are colder than British winters, though, but as relative humidity is usually lower, the dry coldness doesn't necessarily feel as bad as in humid countries. I have been to London once in December and I decided never to go there again in winter bacause it was so cold!
