According to legend, people considered it a good sign if summer and winter ‘freeze together’ (if there was frost on the last night before summer). The forecast is for sub-zero temperatures on Wednesday evening.
Thursday marks the first day of Harpa, the first summer month of the old Icelandic calendar.
Weather forecasts are available on the website of the Icelandic Met Office.
