Finland's Weather has cooperated
Finland is in transition from Summer to Winter now. Generally, this involves a lot of rain, days getting shorter by about 10 minutes per day, and weather that is getting progressively colder.
I have experienced some of that will I am here. The days are shorter now by about 1 hour then when I arrived a week ago. The high temps are around 50F / 10C, but the nights have not been much colder than that.
The rain has not been present very much. The night I arrived (Sunday, 5 Oct) was rainy. I heard some thunder overnight. However, Monday - Thursday were fantastic as you can see below (look at the dates on the photos). Friday started cloudy and misty, but cleared up nicely (again, as you can see below).
Of course, Saturday was rainy. OK, more like drizzly. I wore my rain coat, but did not need my umbrella. Sunday (today) started cloudy, but then turned into a very nice day.
I have no weather complaints!
Monday (afternoon, about to take a cab to my hotel)
Tuesday (mid-morning from the 9th floor)
Wednesday (sunrise from the 9th floor)
Thursday
No photos. Sorry, you have to take my word for it.
Friday (afternoon, at the start of the walk referenced yesterday)
Saturday (Misty & Gray all day)
Sunday Morning (cloudy, but breaking up)
Sunday Afternoon (near sunset)

The foliage looks a lot like Roseburg right now, minus the pine trees.
I wore long underwear today to work, but it was warm enough after the morning frost to just wear cords.
