Akureyri from above today. The first snowfall of the season arrived at the end of last week, covering everything in a light white blanket. While it looks beautiful, the snow likely won’t last long, as it often comes and goes this time of year.
The average winter temperature is around 0°C (32°F), but it can vary, with daytime temperatures typically ranging from -5°C to 5°C (23°F to 41°F). In the mountains, though, the snow is more likely to stay until spring, and the skiing season is expected to start in December.
