Catch some sun in Iceland over the next few days! Today, southwest Iceland will sizzle with temps reaching up to 18°C, while the northeast coast will chill at around 7°C. In the northeast, dominated by light northeast or variable winds, skies should be mostly clear, with winds blowing from 3 to 10 meters per second.

Welcome the sun in tomorrow as temps hover between 10°C and 19°C across most parts of Iceland. The eastern region might experience light rain or drizzle and temps ranging from 5°C to 11°C.
The East Coast Chill
Meteorologist Hrafn Guðmundsson from the Icelandic Meteorological Office points out that while temperatures won't exceed 20°C today, they may reach up to 18 to 19°C in southwest Iceland. Temps are predicted to soar above 20°C in tomorrows inland areas of South Iceland. Light winds will be common across the country, although a weak frontal system approaching tomorrow might stir up moderate northerly winds in eastern coastal regions.
On Sunday, expect increased cloud cover, but clear skies will return later in the week.
