The heat wave has affected Lapland, where the highest air temperature during the last 100 years has been registered

The Finnish Meteorological Institute recorded 33.6 degrees Celsius on Monday at a meteorological station near the border with Norway.

The institute announced that only once more heat was recorded in Lapland – in July 1914, the air temperature reached 34.7 degrees Celsius.

The beginning of July in Lapland, where several Finnish cold records were recorded in winter, was especially warm.

An expert from the Finnish Meteorological Institute pointed out that air temperatures in Lapland rarely exceed 32 degrees Celsius and the heat wave that hit Lapland was caused by a high-pressure air mass that brought warm weather. In addition, warm air has also entered from Central Europe.

The heat has also started in Norway and Sweden.
