Spring is Finally Here!!!...NOT!

Today came the so-called "takatalvi" here in Finland. The word means that you think that spring is here and then suddenly winter is back. It's been snowing all damn day now and we've got about 5-10 cm of snow. Yippee!! Please, feel sorry for me! ;) It's feels very depressing, but hopefully the snow won't last for long.
This happens almost every year, that's why you shouldn't be in a hurry with changing your winter tires to summer tires. Still many people tend to do that and it often ends with a car crash or driving off the road.
Here are some pictures of today's walk in the neighborhood:

Rauha was of course with me! :)

You have to be careful when you walk, many places with ice under the snow.

Spring is my fav season

I like all seasons! :)..But yeah, Spring is awesome!

Amazing nature photography! Keep it up!

Thank you!

Haha, this is exactly what just happened in the Czech Republic too :D My parents just called me it is snowing heavily there, even though everyone was already expecting the spring to come, the Easter usually comes with spring-like weather. We just didnt know its called takatalvi :)) Hard to imagine for me though as we are having yet another scorching day with 35 degrees here in Mexico.

Happy Easter borran! :)

For real? :D..On Easter it's almost always like that, really bad weather! At least here in Finland.
Wow, 35 degrees! That's too hot for my Finnish skin! ;)
Happy Easter to you too!

The same happens to Estonia!)))

I can believe that! :)

Uusi lumi vanhan surma..: new snow means death for the old snow :) spring is comming..soon...

:D! Yeah, I hope so too! :)

really enjoy its... nice post @borran thanks for sharing

Thanks!

you are welcome @borran

I recall "Springs" like that. Great how there is a specific word "takatalvi" for that which speaks to how many times it has happen. Beautiful Lab and thanks @borran for the refreshing post.

Isn't there a similar word for it in English? :)

Beautiful pictures,

Your snowy spring in Finland looks much better than our 41 degrees of humid heat here in India...

Thanks! Wow, that's very hot weather! I could not handle it :P.

Indeed it is, i would me more than glad to have someone throw a snowball at me right now !

Keep posting !

Haha! I understand you well!

haha
I know how you feel
apparently, we're going to have one of those sudden winter days in May, too

Yeah, but hopefully not! :)

In some parts of Finland it wasn't even a takatalvi, rather just more snow. I hope they'll melt before the first of May, but we'll see... 😅

Haha, I'm sorry to hear that!(if you are living there)
Yeah, I hope so too! But, the first of May has quite often been cold!

now in my country, the Summer is comming :)

Photographs really good. Looks cold but I love the snow. It is weird when you live with sun every day you crave rain and bad weather. i suppose it's the opposite with you. Have the snow and want the sun.

Thanks for your kind words! Yes, it's always like that. You are never satisfied with the weather! ;)

Paras vitsi minkä oon kuullut tänä vuonna: Suomen kevät ja kesä!

Hienoja kuvia :)!

Hehe! Kiitos!
Toivotaan, että hieno kesä on tulossa!
