The wild weather continues in Iceland today and tonight, with the Icelandic Met Office issuing a strong gale warning yet again.

Spells of rain or sleet are expected in the south and west while the north and east will remain dry. Southwest winds reaching 23 metres per second (51 mph) will hit the western regions of the country around midnight, but with winds moderating by tomorrow evening. Temperatures around freezing point (32 Fahrenheit).

Rain and cold temperatures make for poor travel conditions all over the country and motorists are advised to drive cautiously.

The road across Mosfellsheiði is extremely slick and road conditions across Lyngdalsheiði, South Iceland, are poor.

The road across Fróðárheiði, West Iceland, is currently impassable, and so is the road across Kleifarheiði, Westfjords.
