Here’s a view of the Baltic Sea from Hanasaari Sunday morning. Normally this bay would be solidly ice at this time of year but the Finns are having their warmest winter in a century and the two inches of snow that fell Saturday night was the first on the ground in a while. When we arrived at the airport, the country was all brown ground.
The trio of massive icebreakers in Helsinki harbor that we passed Sunday on our tour of the city have been unused virtually all winter.
It’s easy to see why climate change is such a huge issue in the Nordic countries
