Ísafjörður is a settlement within Vestfirðir, the coldest sea-level region of Iceland. Ísafjörður lies at the uttermost northwesterly position of Iceland; 66° 03' 39.96" N; henceforth, it is colder than other maritime regions of the country. The climate here is tundra maritime ( Et) with cool summers and cold, snowy winters. It is also very squally, with catastrophic snowstorms regularly lashing the region. Snow falls on about 105-115 days annually; Reykjavík and Akureyri receive 80.2 and 97.1 snowfall days, respectively; sunshine would be about 950-1,100 hours annually. C–; variable, dry, but extremely cold summers; cold, tremendously snowy winters.  |

My love for 1-4°C temps and chilly rain are well-documented, huh?  F. |

how the hell do you pronounce its name? not sure on the vowels but 'ð' is pronounced exactly like the 'th' in 'this' or 'them'. 'þ' would be the 'th' in 'think'.  Anyways this is a D+ climate for me. Gets very good snowfalls and the summers have decent precipitation levels for the temperatures. |

F-, I would not move here for any amount of money. You couldn't even look forward to spring in those winters if March is the coldest month |

I'd estimate the annual snowfall to be 286 cm, not much of it will stick though. Pretty curious as to what snow lovers such as sari think of such a climate anyway  286 cm but it struggles to properly stick... |

If it doesn't stick, it's nearly useless. With that much, though, I'm sure at least some would.
Not sunny enough and summers are too cold. C+

C+ Yes, you're probably right. 30 cm cover evaporated within two days of 3/0°C weather here though but at least since that place hardly has sun in winter, I'm sure it retains a quite regular pack especially towards the end of the winter when the snow has "won" for a week or two and built up a bit of a margin between the ice days... |

E-, better than somewhere with extreme winters like Yakutsk but still really not my thing...
Edit: Maybe F+ since it's technically a tundra...
