Icy and snow covered roads

There is ice on the roads and snow in the mountains – winter has officially arrived. Yesterday it snowed on Hellisheidi, where the road from Reykjavík to Selfoss lies. The Icelandic Road Authority warned drivers of icy patches on Klettsháls, Holtavörduheidi and Borgafjördur. There is snow on the ground in many places in the north east of Iceland and the weather forecast is for sleet and continued cold weather throughout the country.
