Low-pressure system approaching southeastern Iceland bringing rain and sleet

A low-pressure system is approaching from the south, expected to reach the southern coast tonight and move northeast along the eastern coastline tomorrow. This system is considered shallow, especially in comparison to typical low-pressure systems during this time of year in Iceland. Wind speeds are forecasted to be from the southeast, ranging from 5 to 13 meters per second, accompanied by occasional rainfall.

Winds will be lighter in the North and East, where some sleet or snowfall may occur after noon. Temperatures are predicted to be just above freezing in rural northern areas, while the southwest may see temperatures rise to 8 degrees Celsius.

By tomorrow morning, winds will shift towards the east at speeds of 5 to 13 meters per second, with widespread rain or sleet, particularly in the eastern regions. A northwind is anticipated by the afternoon, reducing precipitation and clearing skies in the southwestern part of the country. Overall temperatures are expected to range between 3 and 10 degrees Celsius, with the warmest conditions in the southwest.
