Infrared sees one hotspot again.
-
A whole busload of tourists now. ;-)

I had a feeling it was, but with that bad vision....I don't know. But it would explain the dark plume I mentioned yesterday.
-
They say it's the rain.Assessment - 19 May 2010 17:55According to radar and pilots’ observations, the plume has been slightly lower today than yesterday, at 5-6 km (18,000-20,000 ft). Southerly winds prevailed this morning over the volcano, turning to the southwest at 15-18 m/s. The plume drifted northwest early this morning, but then turned north-northeast, and its colour is gray or light gray. The number of lightning strikes has decreased.Ash has fallen in the south at Flúðir, FljótshlÃð and Rangárþing ytra. Ash has also fallen with rainfall in the north, in HúsavÃk and Skagafjörðyour, right before noon.Heavy rainfall caused swelling of Eyjafjallajökull rivers today. The rain, together with ash from an area of a few square kilometers, resulted in a mudslide in Svaðbæli river. Hydrologists from IMO, and a scientist from IES, gathered samples from the river and also from Skógar river. The discharge at the old bridge over Markarfljót river has not been greater since 15 April. The discharge at GÃgjökull is still low.The plume is up to 5-6 km and drifts to the north-northeast according to reconnaissance flight from the Icelandic Coast Guard this afternoon.The above is based on a status report issued collectively by the Icelandic Meteorological Office and the Institute of Earth Sciences at 17:00.

Someone cleaned the Mulakot cam. ;-)

ahhh, ok, I see what you mean.. I didnt bother looking at the precise position of the quakes before, just assumed they would place loads of red dots in a huge cluster like they usually do, but I guess if they are exactly on top of one another, you can do that.
And if you go to the enlarged map Reykjanes Peninsula you'll even see them.
-
10 of them were all in the same place so you see them as one red dot. There are two tabs on the top of the map. One called map and the other table. Go to table and you'll see what I mean.

I did notice the rather big heat signature near the top when I got it in the end. So it looks like the lava is still flowing
You remeber the lava hotspot which the heatsensor was extremely fond of? The white spots I mentioned where slightly higher and to the left of that. More like in a straight line above the split rock and with the dark plume above it.IR cam now shows the old three lavaspots again so I guess the new spots were all steamplumes.
-
Same here in the Lowlands of Holland.
Just have a look at the Poro axis cam. Isn't there an awfull lot of ash between the rocks?
-
There were several bright white spots near the top and a broad dark smokeplume above them on the axis cam. On the left of that was a plume of white steam visible.
-
Looks like there's something happening on the Poro cam now?
-
Vodafone cam is back, but the wind seems to have changed. The Mulakot cam looks as if it's covered by ash.
-
I find it very frightening and very immoral. I will now be worried the whole time I am flying to Spain and I have never had a fear of flying before.
Totally disgusting!
Just drive there. I do and it's "only" 1900 Km's to Vinaros. -lol-
-
I would only get worried if an ancient volcano in Scotland became active!
As long as it's not in Cornwall next month cause I'll be there then.
-
Wow. Those don't look like clouds on the AXIS cam. I'm pretty sure that's one big pile of steam. It's not going any direction. Just hanging around the ashplume.
-
Something keeps falling down, every so often, in front of that split rock - hot water maybe. The whole runoff fan looks quite warm today and steam is rising from it in places, off and on.
Could be dust being blown about I suppose...?
Sure doesn't look like dust. Small white plumes every now and then. Even one rolling down just a minute ago, so I gues there is a bombardment going on.
-
Am I imagining this or is it much more black now as well?
-
Just a few minutes ago I noticed a white plume on the slope just left and one quarter of the total heighth above the most left building. Anyone seen that before?-edit- there are more now, so I guess they're just clouds. Forgot to mention it was on Mulakot.
-
Infrared seems to show a lavastream now.
-
A couple of small quakes about 10 hrs ago.
-
-
Beautifull pics and videos !!
-
Just a coincidence. I have a day off today, so it got a bit late. The other coincidence is I own a Nightfire red Rover 800 and this is my nick on several other fora. ;-)Now I hardly dare to ask.....coldfingers?Very apt name by the way.

Hi everyone,Totally new here, but counted 5 lightnings in the last 45 minutes. I'm very lucky I guess.

There were some hotspots indeed and small steamplumes on several places on the slope.
