==Climate== The Swedish weather service (SMHI) operates a weather station in Gäddede. With a normal value of for September, the climate is subarctic (Dfc) with a significant maritime influence from the Gulf Stream. Gäddede is along with Storlien and Riksgränsen one of very few localities in Sweden that lies less than from the open North Atlantic sea. As a result, the effects on the local climate is greater than further inland or on the east coast. The maritime air often blocks continental air during summers, causing chilly temperatures. During some winters however, temperatures hover just below freezing when low-pressure systems are strong. Due to winter precipitation being high, Gäddede has a predictable snow cover for several months.
