Still dry weather, and wind, and lot of dust and ash blowing around. Source of particulate matter in Reykjavik from south of Langjökull; not only ash. Also, a clear source on Vatnajökull (see animation below).
This made for poor air quality, as well as poor visibility. An example from greater Reykjavik area below. View from underneath Helgafell towards Esja.
Satellite images show this well (images from NASA/Rapidfire).
