What's the weather like in northern Iceland?

Northern Iceland is affected by the mountain barrier in central Iceland, but less by the North Atlantic warm current. Most of them are controlled by polar easterly winds, and the climate is cold (ice sheet or tundra climate).

The climate in the cold zone is located in the polar circle of the earth, and the maximum height angle of the sun at noon in a year is only 46 52', so there are areas with extreme day and night.

The main features of this climate are short and cold summers and long and cold winters.

The annual temperature difference is large, and the precipitation in cold regions is scarce, mainly snowfall, with weak solar radiation and strong ground radiation. The soil in the cold zone climate zone is ice marsh soil and permafrost, and the vegetation is scarce. The representative animals are polar bears and penguins, as well as the aurora landscape.
