Anticipated weather conditions during weekend weekend days
Weekend weather in Iceland looks blimmin' fabulous, with temperatures sizzling across the land till midweek! Yesterday, Egilsstaðir Airport set a new May record, hitting a boiling 26.6°C, smashing the old record of 25.6°C from '92 in Vopnafjörður.
Meteorologist Katrín Agla Tómasdóttir from the Icelandic Meteorological Office reckons another record run isn't on the cards today, as southerly winds are expected to be weaker. Sea breezes might make things a bit chillier by the seaside, but don't rule out another heatwave.
As for the capital area - Reykjavik beer hasn't been this warm since, well, ever! Expect mostly clear skies and temperatures soaring up to a toasty 21°C on Sunday.
Looking further ahead, a change in weather could drop in by Wednesday, bringing a hint of moisture and cooler temps in the west. But the northeast's gonna stay sweltering, with temps eyeballing 20°C or better.
Keep those sunnies on because it's gonna be a scorcher, mate! Don't forget to check a trusty weather service or app for the nitty-gritty forecast, and who knows - the Northern Lights might put on a show if the skies clear up! 12
