In winter, in windless weather, it is often 10–15°C – and even 30°C – warmer higher up in the fells than in the villages below, thanks to inversion. So head to Lämpökolmonen Ski Trail, to the visitor centre or to Ylläs Ski Resort to escape the cold!
Observations are updated mainly every 15 minutes.
Temperature accuracy is ±0,5°C but please note that the microclimates vary a lot.
Snow depth is measured in Fell Yllästunturi’s northern side, about 400 meters above sea level, in an open forest, accuracy about ±1cm.
