The good news? Sunshine may grace Skellefteå by the weekend! Friday's temperature could climb to around 10 degrees Celsius. Expect more flashes of sunshine on Saturday with similar temperatures.
Sunday looks even warmer, with highs reaching 14 degrees. However, new rain showers are on the horizon, moving eastward. But for those yearning for summer, there is proper sunshine ahead!
Warmer air arrives early next week, with temperatures likely reaching 20 degrees on Tuesday and Wednesday. Shorts weather?
– It depends on your tolerance, but it's definitely time for clothes for warmer temperatures, says Greenland.
Temperatures cool down towards the end of next week, settling between 12 and 14 degrees during the day. The bad news is that the ten-day forecast offers some uncertainty about whether the warmth will linger.
