The weather was exactly what I expected: cold, sun and the occasional snow shower. Fortunately I was able to dress for the cold with a few layers of thermal clothing and even with a good jacket the snow was fine.

It was warmer than expected (a few degrees below zero), so we did not suffer from the cold. Unfortunately it was cloudy all the time, so we did not get to see the northern lights.— This text has been automatically translated into English
