7th IMO issued a warning as the ship passage
between Barði and Straumnes could
close the following days. However, that did not happen, most likely as the ice melted as it

The 16th the ice-edge was 17,5 nm E of Horn, 12,5 nm N of Drangasker and 16 nm NNE of Þaralátursnes. The 17th two ice
bands reach land north
