Finland only really deserves its frosty reputation in winter, from November to mid March, when temperatures plummet to -20ÂºC/-4ÂºF or lower. Winter days are short and in Lapland, the sun may not clear the horizon at all. In the far north, the snow cover can last from as early as October till as late as May.
Note that Finland's weather is not as cold as many think - the Finnish average mean temperatures are higher than that of other regions in the same latitudes (i.e. south Greenland). The temperature is raised mainly by warm airflows from the Atlantic, and also by the Baltic Sea.
