She's getting excited again - the plume just got wider at the base. Has that second vent opened up, I wonder? if you look at the FLIR the hot stuff is going a whole lot further into the air than before.

Deflation to the north, but inflation in the south by the looks of it. http://notendur.hi.is/runa/eyja_gps.html

During my search I noticed a few Firefox addons for that browser. One is here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/121408

You mean, the browser makers... What browser are you using? They will have something, you just need to google it. If you have Word, try copy/pasting into that then highlight the words you want to change and hit Shift + F3. This will convert everything to lower case. YOu can then copy paste back into the browser. Another option is to open another browswer window. Then go here: http://www.convertcase.net/ and follow the instructions.

Someone caught the 2nd vent on the FLIR cam - so it does look like there might be another vent trying top open/reopen. http://skitch.com/suwc/dnwux/flir-shows-second-plume-at-eyjafjallajokull

From Jón Frímann (a poster on the Eruptions site & the one who set up the seismometers we often look at here: http://www.simnet.is/jonfr500/earthquake/tremoren.htm). 'My uncle and his wive where on the Míla cam earlier, along with her son. I don't know the fourth person. At one point, they where all three standing and waving to the camera.' I guess they were the small gropup we saw an image of further up. Actually, many on the Eruptions blog have hoped we will take a look around the back of the camera and see if he can turn off the auto-focus. I think he'd set off by then tho'.

It's a chap called Leifur from the Eruptions blog. He said he was heading up there earlier.

I did last night (posted a couple of pics) but I just have a lot of black cloud tonight. Apparently we have 'patchy ash' Aberdeen Airpoirt tweet says: ABZ_Airport Breaking news: Aberdeen Airport due to close at 0100 due to patchy areas of high density in our airspace. We hope to open again by 0700.

Someone on the Eruptions blog (post #239 http://scienceblogs.com/eruptions/2010/05/eyjafjallajokull_update_for_57.php) has compared the FLIR image with the normal view and come up with this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/suw/4588384291/ It does a good job of explaining what is where.

I think I shall also retire. Early start tomorrow... Fingers crossed for another clear day.

Yes, it seems to have some sort of auto focus set and the moving steam is making the focus shift. It is quite annoying! Great view of the full plume here: http://www.simnet.is/jonfr500/earthquake/vefmyndeyjafjalmulaen.html

Pics taken 1st to the east, 2nd to the north. No clouds anywhere - planes obviously flying (see the 2nd pic). Very pretty evening here.

Yes, Aberdeen. It's barely twilight here.

Interesting - I think we have some volcanic sunset stuff going on. Orange skies all around the horizon as far as I can see, not just where the sun has gone down.

That is the steam at the front of the lava flow - the steam you see in the voda cam. You can see it more clearly here: http://www.simnet.is/jonfr500/earthquake/vefmyndeyjafjalmulaen.html

Love the way it skirts the UK. Quite remarkable really.

Nice pic http://www.livescience.com/environment/iceland-volcano-ash-image-100507.html As I said above (and included the link that works now), they have changed the link to fix the fact it said it was pointing somewhere else. These are the three links now. http://eldgos.mila.is/eyjafjallajokull-fra-hvolsvelli/ http://eldgos.mila.is/eyjafjallajokull-fra-valahnjuk/ http://eldgos.mila.is/eyjafjallajokull-fra-thorolfsfelli/ the fimmvorduhalsi one no longer exists. Besides, they are all listed on the left hand side of the page anyway - use the links there from one of the pages that works.

They have changed the links to fix their names (as they were all saying they were looking at other locations).

I would not be surprised. So long at it stays clear, anyway.

:good:

Make the window with the image in active, hold down alt then Prnt Scrn, paste into Irfan View or some other image software. Crop to taste.

Wow!

Water flooding down the glacier on the left of the cleft rock at the moment - on the voda cam zoom in. http://www.vodafone.is/eldgos/en As I said, from this distance it is likely to not be as accurate as it could be. The lower one downslope from the eruption is probably the lava flow peeking through a gap.

Temperature of the very whitest bit - scale runs from blue to white - values at top and bottom show end values of scale. I don't think this way of measuring is terribly accurate tho'.
