Headline in the metro magazine today:

Hellemölisijät poliisin riesana


Helle = hot weather (Dont I know it..)

riesa = nuisance but what is mölisijä?

The closet I came to a meaning was mölistä= to howl, bellow. mölisijä = howler (as in dog?)

Guessing...

heat sensors/alarms/sirens that go off in hot weather...

Here’s the same (?) story with a bit different headline. The article basically tells us that reports filed with the police on disorderly conduct have greatly increased in number because of the hot weather and people sleeping with their windows open. On one hand, the weather and the vacation season allow party animals to stay out till the late hour. On the other hand, people trying to sleep with their windows open will more easily get disturbed by any noise from the outside – even the kind of noise which wouldn’t normally disturb anyone.

mölistä = to speak / shout out / sing / wail something (usually seemingly unintelligible) with an unnecessarily loud and/or deep voice; perhaps while “under influence”
möly = bawl; unwanted loud noise; especially unwanted loud noise generated by humans when they talk, shout, howl, or sing in inappropriate places or at an inappropriate time, with inappropriate gusto or persistence
mölytä = to make the kind of noise as above (a synonym to mölistä)
mölisijä = one who keeps making such noise

Eikö tuo naapurin mölisijä ikinä lopeta? Kello on jo kaksi yöllä; haluan nukkua!

Whatever it is, using one of these words implies you do not approve of the noise.

Thanks!
