weather
Trondheim
weather is different from the upper North of Norway.
Trondelag has a beautiful
weather. In fact a person can experience four seasons in one day. Why?
Because we have a changeable climate in Trondheim. Norway
has a great weather because of the Gulf Stream! The reason is
that it carries the warm water. This ocean current starts
in the Mexican Gulf,then currents along Florida coast,
continues along the American East coast until it turn aside North
Eastward by the Grand banks to the South of Newfoundland where it
crosses the Labrador current. The Gulf Stream crosses the Atlantic and
reaches North of Ireland where the Continental shelf makes the bulk of
the current continue to the North of Norway and round to Russia where
it keeps the port of Murmansk ice free. According to the NASA's
Earth Observatory the temperature range from about 7 to 22 degrees
Celsius. (Responsible NASA Official: Lorraine A. Remer,Science Mission

Munkholmen

monastery and anti-aircraft gun station during the World War II.
The best time for visiting Norway, especially Trondheim is from May
to September. In summer you will be able to see the Midnight Sun.
There is no darkness during summer and you will
experience endless days(24 hours daylight). However you should not be
worried about not getting sleep during the night since we use thick
curtains so inside our bedrooms will be very dark:)

pretty chilly, with overnight frosts of around C-6 or F24. However,
during the winter, you can take the opportunity to go skiing. The
