Moving to Norway
If you’re relocating to Amsterdam, Utrecht, or Rotterdam, CML Cargo possesses the expertise and local insight to customise your move according to your specific needs.
Climate in Norway
Norway’s climate varies greatly depending on the region. Coastal areas benefit from a temperate maritime climate, with mild winters and cool summers, thanks to the Gulf Stream. Inland areas experience colder winters with significant snowfall and warmer summers, making them popular for skiing and hiking. Northern Norway, above the Arctic Circle, is known for its polar nights during winter and the midnight sun in summer. Rainfall is frequent, especially along the western coast, so it’s important to prepare for wet weather regardless of the season.
