Lagom is a uniquely Swedish term that doesn’t have an English equivalent. Not only does it not translate perfectly but its just a very Swedish idea, or feeling. Lagom is “Just enough,” “Not too much or too little,” “Just right,” “Enough to go around,” “Fair share.” It indicates balance. Lagom doesn’t have the negative connotation of “sufficient” nor does it claim perfection. It works in a lot of different contexts, which is why its so interesting and special. When searching for unique words, this one was always proudly suggested. “How are you?” can be answered with lagom. “How is the weather?” “Lagom” Someone can be a “lagom” height. This term not only has many applications but it represents the Swedish cultural and social ideals of equality and fairness.
This should be a perfect representation of a "lagom" Swedish climate and their mindset. Dull, uninteresting, bland, no personality, no flair. It's like pasteurised milk. At least UHT milk has the few seconds of excitement.
Automatic F from me.

Has to be a contender for a $500 prize on C-D level. Around 50% of possible every month. A bit more maybe in the summer, but just... lagom.

Definitely doesn't have "just enough" weather, because it has no weather. Well not quite, but close. D

One thing's for sure, had my climate been that "lagom" I'd be in double the shape due to the perfect training weather year round. November here can never be lagom That said, 25/15 would be much better for summers and it could easily be a bit wetter in autumn and drier in spring

Schyst, Sjyst and Juste are among the most interesting words in Swedish too. Because although the three words are just variation of spelling of the one word meaning "pretty nice", nobody in the history of ever, ever spelled it other than "schysst". Even though there are three correct spellings, everybody chooses the same incorrect spelling.
This climate isn't schysst. It's schyst, sjyst and juste. A-

I thought this was a weather enthusiast's forum... Well, people interested in politics surely have different views on what good policy is, correct? Some people like hugs Some don't. That's life.

F, anyone who idolises such a climate doesn't belong on a weather board.

F, anyone who idolises such a climate doesn't belong on a weather board. Examples of F climates, in other words climate that can literally kill you, I fail to see why appreciating 23/15 summers and 14/10 winters should rule anyone out of a weather board, especially if the climate isn't even a cold desert? #1#2#3

I'd rather perish from natural causes like a man than by suicide via extreme boredom Also, how is Orcadas Base even remotely "deadly"?! Wind-chill can't kill you, mate.

At least it's comfortable and has precipitation and some seasonal variability.
