It is rather beautiful here in Oulu 🇫🇮, right now. Absolutely no filters needed at all 🤌
-20°C, wind chill -28°C.This is one of our main cycling and walking routes (#8) and here we have a 5 km stretch with ZERO at-grade crossings with motor traffic. I repeat, it's physically impossible to meet any motor traffic here. So it is very peaceful, safe and comfortable to ride and walk completely uninterrupted. Just bliss.

Hopefully with spike tires. 😁 -

@pekkatahkola I have to sort out flights, hotel etc and visit Oulu. Maybe December/January.
@hrw Sounds good, welcome! 🤗

@pekkatahkola The temperature may be -20°C, but wind chill is not measured in °C. It's just -28.
@mike Wind chill isn’t a physical air temperature and can’t be measured with a thermometer, that’s true. But it’s defined as an equivalent temperature: the air temperature in calm conditions that would cause the same rate of heat loss from exposed skin. Because of that, it’s still expressed in degrees (°C or °F), even though it’s an index rather than a direct measurement.

@pekkatahkola Not according to eg Environment Canada: https://www.canada.ca/en/services/environment/weather/severeweather/wind-chill-index.html and any other text I have consulted. Wind chill and humidex are both unitless. -

Beautiful photos!
I often cite Oulu as an example when people argue that year-round bicycle infrastructure isn't viable in Thunder Bay.
There are some interesting parallels between our cities. We're not on the ocean but have an ocean-going port, often with 5-6 'salties' at anchor waiting to load wheat or potash mostly; we're a regional hub a long way from our provincial and national capitals; and, have similar temperatures and seasons.
I really hope to visit Oulu one day!

@corvus Thank you, and welcome! It would also be interesting for me to visit Thunder Bay some day 👌

There is a large Finnish population in Thunder Bay, you would probably feel right at home (except for the terrible cycling infrastructure).
I've shared some of these pictures here before but thought I would post them again.

@corvus Thanks! That's heartwarming, all that heritage looks like a little piece of home there far away 🥰 I’d absolutely love to visit Thunder Bay one day (and maybe help the city to improve their cycling infrastructure and maintenance while I’m there 😉)
