The climate is subarctic marine; there is mild winter (- 5, -6 °), with thaws and strong winds. However, summer in Iceland is cool. Weather is changeable, the rain clouds can change sun for a few times within an hour. Such climate is formed under the influence of the Irminger current, a branch of the Gulf Stream.

However, they do not express the slightest dissatisfaction and quietly go on their way.
