Snowfall returns as April weather takes wintry turn

Large parts of Finland are set for snow and freezing conditions this week as a cold front sweeps across the country, delaying the arrival of spring. Forecasts indicate that subzero temperatures and snowfall will affect nearly all regions through Friday, including southern areas such as Helsinki.

Meteorologist Henriikka Heikinoja from Yle said on Tuesday that colder air would arrive midweek, bringing widespread snow showers.
