Bottenvik und im östlichen Finnischen Meerbusen
wird das Eis anfangs durch südliche Winde an den
Nordküsten zusammengeschoben. Zum Samstag hin
wird in der nördlichen Bottenvik der Wind abflauen
und über Ost nach Nord drehen, dabei wird es kälter
und die Eisbildung verstärkt sich wieder. Im
südwestlichen Ostseeraum wird das Eis weiterhin
abnehmen.
and in the eastern Gulf of Finland the ice will be
compacted on the northern coasts due to southern
winds. Starting in the night to Saturday the wind in
the northern part of the Bay of Bothnia will
decrease in strength and veer towards the east and
then to north, which will lead to decreasing
temperatures and an increase in the ice formation.
In the southwestern region of the Baltic Sea the ice
will decrease further.
