Clouds will continue to dominate large parts of the country in the near future, according to Christopher Greenland, meteorologist at SMHI.
But it still looks like it could crack a bit between periods of rainfall, he says.
Then it's important to take advantage. For us humans to feel our best, we need both sunlight and regular exercise. If we don't get that, we can fix some of it artificially, according to light researcher Johannes Lindén at Lund University.
We set our circadian rhythm according to the light, he says.
Light therapy lamps and the like can work, but the impact is very individual. There are those who try it and feel no benefits at all, he continues.
The best tip, although perhaps the most difficult in practice, is to get sunlight in the morning or midday – preferably combined with exercise.
We need light during the day and darkness at night, says Johannes Lindén.
The darkness part may seem obvious, but it affects mood and circadian rhythm more than many people think.
In the evening, it is not good to have too much lighting, especially from screens. Not only does the content on the screens keep us awake, but the light also affects the light receptors in the eye that control the circadian rhythm.
In the northern parts of the country, the snow cover can help with the light, but whether it will be a white Christmas in the south is unclear.
It's too early to say anything about that, says Christopher Greenland.
