SVT’s meteorologist: “Unusually cold – and the cold lasts”

According to Nils Holmqvist, it is unusually cold for the time of year, and unusual for the cold to last this long.

Last spring was also cold. Has spring gotten shorter?

– No, rather the opposite, it has actually become five, ten days longer roughly, mainly at the expense of winter.

– But this year it’s very tricky, it can swing strongly between heat and cold and because we have the temperatures we have, it can determine whether the precipitation falls as rain or snow.
