I wouldn't trust phenotype for explaining migrations.

Does the I haplogroup pertain only to nordic phenotypes?

The I haplogroup originated in the middle east (probably), then moved into the Balkans ( where it's still the most common ), and then spread around Europe in various subclades.
I don't see how it can relate to the thing people call a 'nordic phenotype'.
