==Climate== Värmland being a landlocked county results in greater temperature differences than at the nearby west coast of Sweden and south coast of Norway. As a result, the southern areas of the county has a [[humid continental climate]] with strong [[oceanic climate|oceanic]] influences. The latter climate type is prevalent in a small area at the shores of Lake Vänern due to recent warming. More northerly areas see a [[subarctic climate]] with relatively mild winters for the climate type. The subarctic classification of areas such as [[Hagfors]] and [[Torsby]] is more due to the cool summer nights that renders September below {{convert|10|C|F}} in mean temperatures. {{Weather box
