Winter tightens its hold in Lapland. At the moment -28.3 °C in Savukoski Tulppio with > 20 cm of snow. The coldest so far this winter in Finland.
However, much like in 2023, large parts of the northern hemisphere are unusually warm again (except Fennoscandia).

Mildly interesting: IFVs skyrocketed 8x since Sep amounting to ~5x MBTs (vs long-time avg 2.2x).
