Nine below Zero or Sonny Boy Williamson coldYou might think that is very cold as we life so north. As you probably know, there are 10 million people living above the 60th latitude. Half of them live in Finland. How do Finns manage to do it? You might think it is the vodka we drink. I guess that helps, but more is helped by the warm ocean stream (Gulf stream). It raises to temperature in Scandinavia and lowers the temperature in New England. So even that New England is so much south of Scandinavia, the seasons are not so different. However, sometimes we do have Sonny Boy cold. That is time for Winterreisen.
