The southernmost area of Norway (near Kristiansand) is on a similar latitude as northern Scotland. I think it gets a lot colder than the UK because one can go much further away from the sea in Norway. We have fairly mild winters by comparison, being on the receiving end of the northern jet stream bringing mild south westerlies for the bulk of the time. A lot of that aslso moves on to Norway/Denmark also, but as Atlantic lows blow through, the tend to loose power over the big land mass and invite colder northerlies in on the tail end. I'll be studying the weather as part of my schooling in a couple of years as I move towards attaining a coastal skipper qualification.
