Beware of icy patches

Last night temperatures went down and there's a slight covering of snow with icy patches both in Reykjavík and elsewhere. Drivers are warned to take good care in the morning traffic.

According to Einar Sveinbjörnsson, meterologist at the Icelandic Road Administration, the current weather conditions result in a treacherous covering of ice on the roads. The weater forecast for the next 24 hours is for fairly bright skies, winds between 3-8 m/s and occasional showers of rain or sleet.
