Cold weather is expected across Finland this weekend, according to meteorologist Pauli Jokinen from the Finnish Meteorological Institute. On Saturday and Sunday, daytime temperatures in the southern and central regions are forecasted to remain between 10 to 15 degrees Celsius, while northern areas may see temperatures ranging from 5 to 10 degrees Celsius. Jokinen warns that the night before Sunday will be particularly chilly, with frost possible even in southern Finland. In the Ostrobothnia region, nighttime temperatures could drop to freezing.

On Sunday, a rainfall front is expected to reach Ostrobothnia, and light rain and sleet showers may occur in Central and Northern Lapland. Looking ahead to next week, Jokinen predicts unstable, rainy, and windy weather throughout the country. There is a possibility of snow falling in the northern regions on Tuesday night.
