Remarks of a specialist

Along with increasing temperatures in the eastern part of the country this weekend, water levels can be expected to rise in glacial rivers due to melting.

Due to malfunction we have turned off the service publishing hydrological data on the map. Instead see the data using our Rauntímavöktunarkerfi.
