Default Rough weather at Vestmannaeyjar

The breezy conditions across Britain at the moment are more than matched in
the south of Iceland. At midday Vestmannaeyjar in the far south was
recording a wind speed of 83 mph from the south west with a surface pressure
of 952mb. Visibility was reduced to less than 1km due to heavy snow and
probably salt spray as well. The temperature was in fact fairly high around
2C.
