A high-pressure area over Finland will keep conditions warm and dry, while also making nights cold.
Here is how the sunny and mild weather is having an impact:
1. No disposable grills or cigarette butts
Nature is extremely dry at the moment, and a wildfire warning will be in effect on Sunday across almost the entire country, excluding Lapland.
This means that lighting open fires is prohibited.
"If you're doing yard work, you shouldn't burn any garden waste. Even disposable grills aren't allowed," said Yle meteorologist Anniina Valtonen.
Cigarette butts should not be discarded on the ground or thrown out of car windows, she noted.
"Along highways, it's common for cigarette butts to be thrown out of windows, and that can start fires."
2. Switch to summer tyres
Dry conditions mean roads are not slippery.
"You can safely switch to summer tyres. There is no sign of a return to wintry conditions in the forecast," Valtonen said.
3. Temperatures reach summer-like levels on Tuesday
Sunny conditions are making each day warmer than the last.
The warmest day is expected to be Tuesday, when temperatures in southern and central Finland will easily exceed 15 degrees Celsius.
"It could even reach 17 degrees. Lapland will also warm significantly, with many areas above 10 degrees," she added.
4. Green in sight
Rain is expected on Thursday in southern and central parts of Finland.
"But it's just rain — the warm conditions will continue," Valtonen explained.
Next weekend, temperatures are expected to remain between 10 and 15 degrees Celsius.
The rain will bring relief for allergy sufferers. At the moment, alder, hazel and birch pollen are in the air, along with street dust.
Wet weather will also help replenish dry soils and encourage new growth, gradually bringing a green hue back to the landscape.
