The Friday Five II

[star_fish]

A meeting got postponed so here's today's thefridayfive

1) What's the weather like where you are today?

It's pretty windy for Helsinki, 35 kph / 22 mph regularly and 72 kph / 45 mph gusts. My hair was all over my face this morning. Other than that it's nice, sunny and not very warm @ 18C / 65F.

2) How does this type of weather make you feel?

I'm fine with it, the wind doesn't bother me as much and at least it's above 15C 😒

3) What's your favourite time of year (thinking about the weather)?

Summer for sure! I like the warmth. Finnish winter and autumn are awful and while (normal) springs are OK, and it's nice that everything is getting green, it's the allergy season for me and, well, things are still green in summer.

4) Is there any weather that just makes you want to hide away indoors?

Obviously? Too much rain, snow or cold.

5) If you were moving somewhere purely for the climate, where would it be - what's your perfect year-round weather scenario?

Iii don't know, but somewhere warmer. Probably not a tropical place, but let's say I wouldn't miss seeing snow.

Gosh are we all getting smacked extra hard with allergies this year?

You been to France before?

[star_fish]

That was more like an opinion about spring in general, my allergies were actually pretty mild this year, spring was so late (like, two months late!) and short that I only had allergies for less than a month, too.

I haven't been to France before, no. I'll be in the French alps for a month for a summer school, which hopefully translates to a nice first visit.

Well I hope you enjoy the change of scenery!
