Fantastic weather, hot but never muggy. Daylight lasting almost 24 hours was a unique experience. But several unexpected rain showers put an end to the work.
ThomasThe evenings were colder, but a warm coat made it bearable. However, keep in mind that there could be occasional showers.
SennaThe cold was very severe, days below -5 degrees Celsius. Adding grayish skies and frequent snowfalls, the weather proved very unpleasant for recreation.
