Autumn has arrived in parts of Sweden's mountain chain, earlier than usual, bringing cooler conditions while the rest of the country still enjoys late summer. According to SMHI, Västerbotten, Norrbotten and Jämtland entered autumn on August 1. At Stekenjokk, this is the earliest since 2017; some mountain areas skipped summer entirely, going straight from spring to autumn. Meteorological autumn is defined as five consecutive days with average daily temperatures below 10 degrees Celsius. August 1 is the earliest possible date for autumn to be declared.
