Why can't I get an accurate local weather forecast?

Answer

We assume that you are looking for local weather forecast in Iceland.

The Icelandic Meteorological Office has several weather services in English, such as:

• weather forecast
• sea ice information off the Icelandic coast
• a page for converting between the Beaufort-scale and the SI (Systeme Internationale d´Unites) in wind measurements

Local weather forecast for 11 locations around the country can be found here.

Useful information on road condition and weather is provided by the Icelandic Vegagerdin.

If you are looking for the more philosophical or methodological aspects of weather forecasting, we already have an answer on that in Icelandic. We could translate that for you into English if you let us know.
