I’d expect the shortest day of the year to also be the coldest, with the coldest season of the year spreading out equally on both sides of it.

      Seasons of Bergen, Norway:

      December - February: Cold and dark and wet season. Stock up on antidepressants, good food, “Hygge”-paraphenelia, asthma medication and remain indoors.

      March - mid-July: Cold and green season.

      Mid-July: Summer!!!

      Mid-July - August: “pretend it is still summer”-season. Yes, we can grill and drink beer in the garden dammit just put on an extra jacket.

      September: Wet and windy season.

      October - November: Soggy cold season. Shoes and jackets go to the Drying Rack, not on the regular rack.

      addenum: june-august is also barely-nighttime season. Sun “goes down” at 22:00 and remains barely under the horizon until 04:00 so the sky just stays bright. Good luck explaining to your toddler that it is night and time to sleep.
