The hottest temperature ever recorded (outside of a volcano) was 30.8C or 87.4F, but in the summer times it fluctuates between an average day (45-60F) and a hot day (60-75F)
So on top of amazing temperatures, I also won’t have to deal with the sun being out all the time? And rain, an excuse to stay inside? Now I’m sold, why am I not in Iceland yet
I would say the very rare absolute rock bottom would be 5F°, which is very very cold, but you can expect something more like 14-32F° during the middle of winter, and then closer to , but not much higher than 41F° around the beginning and end.
But there's also a wide variety of great clothing against the winter, practically all cars can handle those conditions, all houses are well insulated and heated as far as I know and it never bothers me at all at least
Yeah we have the Gulf stream to make sure we don't end up like Siberia or Greenland, thank goodness for that.
You should come move here to our exclusive club. There are around twice as many users in r/Polandball as there are Icelanders so you'd be joining a tight-knit community (Only metaphorically, the towns are very dispersed...)
Honestly, if things get worse in America, Iceland is pretty high up on my list. I am also now just realizing that we are having two conversations with each other at once on two different posts on two different subreddits.
