Today (02-August-2017) a magnitude 4,5 earthquake took place in Bárðarbunga volcano. An earlier earthquake with the magnitude of 3,8 took place in Bárðarbunga volcano just moments before the larger earthquake.

Other earthquakes in this swarm where smaller in magnitude. This earthquake swarm only lasted for 30 minutes and since after that it has been quiet in Bárðarbunga volcano. Since then there has been little earthquake activity happening in Bárðarbunga volcano.

Future plan changes ahead (for me)
As many may know (or not) is that currently I am in financial problems. The worst of the problem I’m currently having are going to last until 2018 when I’m going to make small changes and slightly improve the situation for me. That is however not good enough for me in my own view. Due to that I’m going to take a little risk and make a plan change. After examining the situation for some time I’ve decided the following thing as my long run plan.
This might result in minor interference of update of this website when I move to Iceland from Denmark. Nothing major.
Next year I’ll temporary move back to Iceland. I plan on going back to school to finish learning electronic so that I can build my own electronic hardware and repair. Along with computer repairs. I don’t plan on staying in Iceland forever. For simplification what I’m going to do is the following.
1. July-2018. Move back to Iceland. Start in school in August-2018.
2. Start saving up to buy a house in Portugal. Where is not known at the moment. Finding the right place is going to take some time.
3. Finish school in Iceland (2023?).
4. Finish saving up for a house to buy in Portugal (2024?).
5. Buy house in Portugal (2024?).
6. Move from Iceland to Portugal (2024?).
This is going to take me 4 – 6 years from start to finish and in that time I’m going to stay in Iceland. I don’t have any way to do this while in Denmark for many reasons. It is better for me to do so in Iceland, even if Iceland is ~140% more expensive then Portugal as an example (Denmark is only ~51% more expensive then Portugal).
This ties into a new project that I’m planning once I’m in Portugal. Since I don’t agree with SETI method of searching for Alien life I’m just simply planning on doing it my self. With a group or people or alone doesn’t matter to me. How and where is not know at the moment since this plan is just in draft stage as is.
I’ll continue to update this website as always, even after I start searching for aliens (since it is mostly just a bot work anyway). I also plan on getting me a decent telescopes so I can take pictures of space, stars and galaxies and so on.

Jon….Is everything okay here?
Earthquake swarm in Torfajökull
There is a earthquake swarm in Torfajökull volcano. Looks tectonic in nature (for now).
Which is the nearest SIL station (online)?
Slysaalda?
Gizmo, yes. This useful map is up-to-date, I believe.

@ Z: *thumbsup* Thank you!
I had to do a server reboot. The website might be a little slow at the moment. I don’t know why that is. Number of page views is not unusually high at the moment.
Not sure if its me but is the aus showing a slight tremmor? http://hraun.vedur.is/ja/oroi/aus.gif
The signals are from the Törfajökull swarm today. Katla seems calm for now.
Thank you ! Now, Hekla …. http://en.vedur.is/earthquakes-and-volcanism/earthquakes/myrdalsjokull/#view=table
The low Hz are rising a little around Katla.
There is also a minor change in conductivity in Múlakvísl glacier river.
Looks like its slowly easing down a bit now from what I can see
Here we go again.
I plan on writing a article about Katla volcano activity during 28th and 29th of July tomorrow if nothing happens.
Conductivity in Múlakvísl glacier river is fluctuating like it did on July-28 just before the minor eruption in Katla volcano. Now the fluctuations are larger and spreading over longer time.
Newest value is 196,5µS/cm and is fluctuating a bit at the moment.
Does anyone know what seems to be happening with Katla atm with the tremmors last night?
