This morning (12-March 2026) at 11:47 UTC an earthquake with magnitude of Mw3,7 took place in Torfajökull volcano.

A small earthquake swarm followed the main earthquake. There are no signs of magma movement in the area. But this area doesn’t erupt basalt lava, so it might be difficult to tell or know if there is lava on the move. Magma erupted in this area most of the time is Rhyolite. Just detecting this type of magma movement might be difficult. There has been some minor inflation in Torfajökull volcano, but it might have stopped few years ago.
