The weather in Iceland is quite crazy. You can experience all 4 seasons in one day. Sun, rain, snow, fog, winds... you name it. You can experience 2 seasons withing FIVE MINUTES. Look at these photos. I actually bothered to give you the exact time each photo was taken to illustrate the frequency and abruptness of the changes.
9:38 am (photo from the bus window on our way to the glacier):
12:38 pm: rain on the glacier:
3:28 pm: heavy snow:
3:31 pm - THREE MINUTES LATER (seriously) - sunny again:
4:20 pm: it's snowing again:
4:24 pm - FOUR MINUTES LATER - nice and sunny again
5:46 pm - more rain on the way back (no snow):
The Icelanders have a saying: "don't like the weather? Wait 5 minutes"
As I just proved it - it is true.
