... from [Hotel Djúpavík]:"The [weather] was calm and clear this morning ... now it´s blowing and starting to snow just like the weathermen have told us the last days and earlier today ... We just hope the electricity will hold ... so we don´t have to sit in the dark... "
From the newspaper: "Storm and Blizzard Warning in Iceland - The Icelandic Meteorological Office has issued a warning about a possible storm and blizzard across Iceland next weekend. Already tomorrow a forceful wind from the east and north is expected to blow over the entire country.
On Saturday, a northeastern storm with considerable snowfall is forecast on the eastern and northern coast and even stormier conditions in the highlands. The road conditions can therefore become difficult within a short time span and in many parts of the country traveling will not be advised.
On Sunday the storm is expected to subside and by Sunday afternoon the weather is likely to have calmed in most regions."
