The Weather in Sweden

Sweden, as a country, is often thought of or described as a country with a fairly cold climate. That might not be so strange, considering the geographical location, and the fact that one of the most famous attractions in Sweden is the Ice Hotel in Jukkasjärvi. The Swedish climate is, however, a much milder climate in relation to other regions which lie that far north. Sweden is an elongated country, so the climate in different regions will, of course, differ from each other. The average temperature in the southern part of Sweden in January is around zero degrees celsius (thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit), while in the northern part of Sweden, it's around minus fourteen degrees (seven Fahrenheit). The difference in temperature between the different regions is less during the warmest month, which usually is July, in which the average day temperature is thirteen to seventeen degrees celsius (fifty-five to sixty-three Fahrenheit). This might sound quite cold, but remember that it's colder during the nighttime and warmer during the daytime.
