Weather conditions shift across Iceland and Faroe Islands with low-pressure system impact
Weather conditions are shifting today across North and East Iceland, with strong northern winds and light snow showers expected. Meanwhile, other regions of the country will experience mostly clear skies. The impacts from a significant low-pressure system located approximately 600 kilometers northwest of Ireland are likely to be minimal here in Iceland. This system had previously brought severe winds and heavy rain to the British Isles yesterday.
Today, the Faroe Islands are facing harsh northeastern weather conditions due to this same low-pressure system. In the southeast and southern East Fjords of Iceland, gusty winds are anticipated, particularly descending from glaciers and highland areas. This could create hazardous conditions for vehicles susceptible to strong winds.
Overall, temperatures will remain low, with inland areas experiencing frost reaching up to nine degrees Celsius. The cold snap is expected to intensify tomorrow, leading to further drops in temperature.
