Snow and bad weather will make for a messy commute today, according to Haraldur Eiríksson, a meteorologist at the IMO. Schools in the Greater Capital area have not been cancelled or delayed due to weather, although parents are urged to keep an eye on weather updates.
“As we all know, weather conditions can shift quite suddenly and lead to chaos on the roads,” Haraldur told Vísir.
A strong easterly wind is passing over the country. Gales will reach more than 25 metres per second (56 mpg/90 km per hour) in mountainous and exposed areas. The heavy winds and snowfall will create extremely bad travel conditions all over the country and travel between regions is not advised until late noon.
