It's usually about 5 degrees (F) warmer on the coast.

on the west coast with freezing temperatures and the wind blowing at
around a gazzilion km/h is sure doesn't feel that way ;)

but i guess with big enough barbecue and enough alcohol a christmas
barbecue is doable
no such thing as bad weather only wrong clothes ;)

Merry christmas to everyone from the Arctic Circle.

I am looking forward to go north by boat, as is now
an established tradition. The exact date remains to be
determined, it has to do with the storm season and
the sailing plan of the ships. The smaller boats are a bit
too cramped to stay on for any length of time; the larger
ships tend not to get to port if the winds exceed storm
force.

But anything is better than driving in the valleys and
across the mountains, at this time of year. 

Rune

Hello everyone,

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
