Iceland eruption still plodding along land rise is getting closer to the previous high so when and if it reaches that and passes it it could get interesting again.

This was yesterday's update so it's somewhat outdated, but gives some good prehistorical & recorded data about Ruang.

Interesting update on Met office web site in regards to the inflation so next week or two could be interesting. Will we get a new eruption or will the extra magma escape through the present vent?

Eejits were spotted walking out across the active lava-field and recent lava flows today as caught on Isak's livestream (2:13:10) The mind just boggles.

Icelanders have the right approach to stupid people. If you get into trouble we are not saving you.

The land seems to have stopped rising and there was a pause last time before the present eruption so it maybe brewing something or the inflow may have reduced suddenly and outflow is matching the inflow once again. Or it could be a slight pause.

As you were at Iceland ongoing inflation and ongoing eruption. Interesting comments on Icelandic web site about this being unique. Sadly not quiet true as Kilauea had inflation and ongoing eruption and the end result was that more fissures opened up or the eruption rate increased to compensate.

 The PIT perhaps they just mean for Iceland it is unique.

Pretty sure there was uplift at Fagradalsfjell an eruption when that first started but could be wrong.
