Where the rain reaches accumulated snow.
Snow layers and snow cover
Most of the snow is in the western part of the forecasting area, for example in Hlíðarfjall, but less snow is in mountains in the east. Little snow is in the lower part of mountains but snow has accumulated above 4-500 m after snowfall on Wednesday. Isolated windslabs are possible after strong NE winds night to Wednesday. Likely the snow will become wet up to high elevations during the rain the next few days and become temporary unstable.
Recent avalanches
A small avalanche fell last Sunday easterly in Hlíðarhryggur.
Weather forecast
Slow changing winds and no precipitation early Thursday then turns to northeast winds with rain or sleet and snow in the highest mountains until Friday. Slow changing winds and no precipitation on Saturday.
