in the Southwest. The weather in December was stormy.
The year 2015 was the coldest in Iceland since 2000, but this period has generally been abnormally warm so the average temperature was close to the 1961-1990 mean. In most parts of the country the precipitation was well above normal.
Temperature
The average temperature in Reykjavík was 4.5°C, 0.2°C above the 1961-1990 mean. This is the 20th

of governance. Pierre (2000) speaks of a
“governance continuum”, with state-centric
approaches at the one end and society-centered

Visual flight conditions in Iceland:
Poor in the N-part. Mostly good in the S-part, but marginal in the SE later.
Freezing level:
At or near SFC, but up to 2000 FT in the S.

The star denotes the source of the large earthquake that occurred south-west of Ingólfsfjall.
Significant earthquake activity has taken place west of the main fault; this is the location where a magnitude 5 earthquake occurred in November 1998, making it unlikely that a large earthquake will occur in this region

Many local maximum temperature records where also exceeded, amongst those at Teigarhorn in the Eastern Fjords where the maximum rose to 18.2 degrees. The daily recording of maximum temperature at Teigarhorn began in 1872 and the new record exceeded

The steps can also be found in Table A2-1
(Appendix 2) and the corresponding substeps in the
author tables (Appendix 1: A1-1–A1-5). Here we
would like to point out that all five guides have quite
similar views on DA 2, DA 3, and DA 5 and four
guides on DA 4 and DA 10. The other steps are
either mentioned by only one (DA 7) or two guides
(DA 1, DA 6, DA 8, and DA 9). However, even
