The climate of Reykjavík in april is very bad
Given the polar climate that characterizes Iceland, cold weather still dominates the climate in Reykjavik throughout April. This is true, despite the gradual rise in temperatures over the days. It should therefore be expected that snowfall, which is indissociable from cold temperatures, remains relatively abundant.
Reykjavik at the Beginning of April
In addition to the cold temperatures that make the days unfavorable to outdoor outings, unless one is comfortably wrapped, the alternation of rainy days with snowy ones is also primary in describing the climatic conditions of the first ten days of the month. It is not surprising, then, that the beautiful light days are rather rare.
Reykjavik in the Middle of April
Due to the slight increase in temperature, the weather is improving - however gradually. The number of days with beautiful sunshine increases while those of rainy days decrease. On the other hand, snowfalls continue to show - especially in late afternoons.
Reykjavik at the End of April
It is during the last days of the month that the climate throughout April in Reykjavik becomes more lenient with a rather fresh atmosphere, even if the wearing of warm clothes remains unavoidable. In fact, the sunny days are accompanied by relatively high temperatures that are quite numerous and take the place of the snowy days - which gradually diminish as the days pass.
