Langanesviti, Fontur
Two hours of bumpy road to the north-east end of Iceland. The drive is all bumps more than worth. Feels like the end of the world, in a positive sense.

A low over the North Atlantic deepened explosively on 13 and 14 October 2026. Forecasters linked part of its energy to the remains of Isaias. South of Iceland, its central pressure fell to about 931 hPa. The waves between Iceland and the Faroes reach about 17 metres around midnight on 14 October.

Europe’s winter daylight follows a striking north-south divide. At the winter solstice (21 December), southern Spain enjoys nearly 10 hours of daylight, Iceland gets around 4 hours, and areas north of the Arctic Circle see no sunrise at all. Source: buff.ly/NQk2ika

Cape Spear in Newfoundland is considered by many as the easternmost point of North America.

The redwing and fieldfare were all flying north east which seems a bit odd? Assuming they are Iceland birds that ended up further west than intended.

Bringing you this week’s weather forecast is Aidan McGivern.

Hunters snatch the birds mid-flight from the air one by one using big nets, then take the terrified animals and break their necks, or they just shoot them. Some hunters pay up to 4,000 USD to kill 100 puffins at once, just for sport.

The volcano’s a thousand kilometres off the norwegian coast, about 800 kilometres north-east of Iceland.
Language-wise, norway, denmark and sweden essentially speak the same language, so, not really? :)

Massive and exceptionally strong mid-latitude cyclone is currently approaching Iceland.

Minimum pressure at the centre of the storm may reach sub-930 hPa readings which could be one of the lowest, if not the lowest on record for October in the North Atlantic.
