زمینه فرهنگی

Lithuanians often use weather as a way to express their mood. A 'šaltas oras' day is seen as a time for 'jaukumas' (coziness/hygge). There is a shared cultural pride in enduring the cold. Being 'hardy' against 'šaltas oras' is a respected trait. In old songs (dainos), cold weather is often personified as a 'stiff' old man or a biting wind that tests the hero. With climate change, 'šaltas oras' is becoming more unpredictable, leading to more frequent discussions about the 'disappearing winter'.
