Talk:Climate of Iceland

Climate of Akukeyri
The climate of Akureyri is Csc, with a dry summer. Would anyone care to check out the statistics and disagree? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.108.37.224 (talk) 06:55, 14 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes, it does, just barely. The driest month in the summer half year is just barely less than 1/3 the wettest month in the winter half-year. Thus, it qualifies as Csc, if you use -3C as your isotherm for separating temperate (C) and continental (D) climates, like myself. Some people use O deg C, which would then make Akureyri "Dsc".

"10 tons of material can be in motion per transect per hour." I can't see what transect could possibly mean in this sentence. This is a flux-type dimension it could be g/m^2/sec for instance. The Transect article does not help either. Daveekee (talk) 18:28, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

In summer it may be much warmer in north in Akureyri than in Reikjavik. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.233.75.1 (talk) 07:45, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Precipitation?
This article makes no mention of precipitation. Does it never rain or snow in Iceland? This information must be added.—104.244.192.34 (talk) 22:25, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Typical weather conditions in an Icelandic winter
The text under the photo of the jeeps in snow for typical winter conditions in Iceland might be misleading.

Because these are not typical weather conditions for most localities in Iceland. Especially with climate change. These conditions are quite frequent in the highlands, but your average citizen or tourist will not experience them.

 * The entire winter usually isn't like that, but such snowstorms happen in all parts of the country. I (an average citizen) experience them multiple times each winter. The image isn't from the higlands so I simplified the text. – Þjarkur (talk) 14:28, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
