How is the Weather in Iceland?
Iceland is known for unpredictable weather. In one day you can often drive through all four seasons. And that means you can also get stuck in a rut, unexpectedly, with nowhere to go because of a sudden storm (yes, rain, snow, sleet, or hail, even in summer). Particularly in winter, you must keep an eye on the forecast before you leave and notify your hotel or car rental company (but not those nice Icelandic people you met down the pub) before you travel.
You'll also want to download the Safetravel app, which will make it easier for Iceland Search and Rescue to locate your position, should you go missing or find yourself in danger.
Check out a few resources you'll want to keep in your toolkit on your trip to Iceland below.
