Extreme weather - Denmark Video Transcripts
Video 1 Transcript
I don't know if this seems crazy to you, but Denmark, all of Denmark, is north of Juneau, Alaska. So that means in the wintertime, for example, close to Christmas time, the Sun comes up around 10 and sets around 2 or 3, and that's sort of weird. From my perspective, it's not unusually cold there, because there's a warm Gulf Stream going around the country, so the weather is sort of moderate. So that's a little bit crazy weather. It rains a whole lot more than where I came from, which is Reno, Nevada, and it also snows a lot more. But that's probably about the craziest the weather got. I will say it's just beautiful. Springtime, beautiful. Everything blossoms green everywhere. Summer, beautiful. Not too hot. Fall, beautiful. Winter, cold and dark. Good luck.

It can be very, very rainy and unexpected rain. So it could be the middle of summer and really warm, hot, sunny day and then a few hours later be absolutely tipping it down with rain. Other than that, I'd say the winters, they do get quite cold. The snow can be a bit wild as it's blowing in your face as well.

It rains a lot and you never really know if it's gonna rain or not so you just have to bring your jacket just in case because that's better than getting soaked. Sometimes you still get soaked even with a jacket but it makes it really green in Denmark so I mean I guess that's the upside of it.

I actually heard a guy describe it as the armpit of Scandinavia, in terms of weather, and I find that very accurate. It's really slushy in the winter, it's grey, it's cold. You get some snow, it's nothing fancy, it's not like Sweden or anything, where it's like, yay, we're going to have fun skiing, because, you know, it's really flat out in Denmark.

Denmark is a very humid country and again being surrounded by water and that humidity is I think expected both during the summer as it gets really really hot and sweaty and gross. Not like temperature wise, it's just the humidity like permeates through your body and then also for the winters that same permeation through the body but it's cold, really cold.

I swear Denmark could be voted the windiest and most rainy city on on the planet earth. There was one time that I was riding my bike down a very steep hill in a city called Odense and it was so windy that I was physically having to pedal downhill and this isn't just a a measly little like like downhill slope. No, it was like that and I was having to to pedal downhill. So prepare for high winds, tons of rain. However, you know, Denmark just like any other country has its good days. Great sun, blazing heat, humidity, but overall, you know, it's great.

Denmark's not really a crazy weather kind of country, however it rains a lot there. I never left the apartment without everything in my backpack being covered in a grocery bag. I always made sure to have my rain jacket with me. You'd be biking down the road and dry and the next second be totally soaking wet because the rain would just start pouring where it hadn't been raining two seconds ago. So that's that's probably the craziest weather you get is that you know raining if you were on a coastal area you get pretty good wind but for the most part a pretty normal place.

Thankfully in Denmark there's not a ton of crazy weather, but it gets cold, and it gets dark. You know, once it hits October, November time, it'll get dark at 3 or 4 in the afternoon, and be dark until 10 a.m. the next day. And so, that's pretty wild, plus it rains a lot. There's a lot of rain and a lot of wind. So that's probably the craziest it'll get, is when the wind picks up, the rain or the snow is blowing, and, yeah, it feels pretty wild, you know. You're riding your bike, and there's some wind blowing you, and it's trying to blow you off a bridge, but you just gotta keep pedaling through.

Personally, I think the craziest thing about Danish weather is just the sheer amount of rain. Like, it's just kind of insane how much it rains over there. I have had experiences where there's been a crazy amount of wind as well with that rain. Like, for example, where you just lean into the wind and it basically just supports you.
