Denmark, are welcomed by the authentic face of autumn, with shorter days and cooler temperatures gaining prominence. An evident shift from
September, the sea temperature now records a colder 9.2°C (48.6°F). The rapid decrease in daylight hours and dipping sea temperature indicate nature preparing for the winter ahead.
