Reykjavík, Iceland Received Record Snowfall and Instagram Went Crazy

Reykjavík, Iceland Received Record Snowfall and Instagram Went Crazy

It had been 80 years since Iceland’s capital had last seen more than 50 cm of snow fall from the skies in one single night, and just 4 more cm would have made last Sunday break the overall record of 55 cm from January 1937. Unsurprisingly, public transportation came to a standstill and all roads leading out of Reykjavík were closed. Most of the capital’s inhabitants had a cozy day in, but both local and visiting photographers had a field day. When scrolling through Instagram, we certainly are jealous of those lucky enough to be in Iceland this weekend.

It's days like today where I feel very lucky to be living in this amazing little city. Walking around Vesterbær today there were whole streets of people out walking/clearing pavements/clearing snow, and it just felt so good being amongst it. . . . #VSCOcam #vsco #vscoiceland #iceland #exploreiceland #inspiredbyiceland #visiticeland #bestplacestogo #exploremore #neverstopexploring #igscandinavia #everydayiceland #ísland #reykjavík #bestoficeland #ig_iceland #igersiceland #gvpics #wonderlust #exploretocreate #mytinyatlas #everydayiceland #epiciceland #visualsoflife #LF10k #snow #snowgeddon

2 days ago in Reykjavik, the city was hit by a record breaking amount of snow, the most since 1937! It was incredible to see the city transform into a winter wonderland! . . #snow #reykjavik #iceland #europe #travel #backpacking #eurotrip #backpacker #island

“It was very fun to shoot and people seemed very excited by the weather. I took pictures of lots of couples holding hands – everyone was getting into the romantic vibe because of the snow,” Gunnar Freyr, also known as the Icelandic Explorer, said to BBC. He woke up around 3 a.m. by the sound of trees breaking in his backyard, and immediately decided to get out and take some photos. “It was a difficult shoot because my camera kept getting covered with snow, but there was so much light from the snow reflecting on everything it was great conditions for night photography.”
