That might be due all the geologist being on a convention today in Bifr\u00f6st University.<\/li>\n<li>Harmonic tremor suggest that more magma is flowing into B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano system. Increasing the pressure in it. Interestingly this does not appear to have created any inflation in the caldera, at least not any long term inflation is taking place in the caldera. There is less magma erupting from Holuhraun at the moment than is flowing into B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano, this is based on current data. It is clear that in new magma is going <em>somewhere<\/em>, but where is a question with no answer at the moment.<\/li>\n<li>GPS data has stopped acting strange. I am not sure why that happened or why GPS data was strange for few days.<\/li>\n<li>Harmonic tremor signal at 22:40 suggest a minor eruption did start and stop under the glacier. This was one of minor eruption that have been taking place in B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano for the past month. I don&#8217;t expect to have broken the glacier. If there is any glacier flood from this minor eruption it is going to small, since I don&#8217;t expect large amount of glacier being melted in this minor eruption.<\/li>\n<li>Earthquake activity is moving south along the dyke from B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga. That is not good since it suggests that pressure has started to increase in the dyke. This means new eruptions might start without warning where the dyke is located.<\/li>\n<li>Storm is expected in Iceland tomorrow, with wind up to 35m\/s. So detection of earthquakes is going to be difficult while the storm passes over.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Other new items I have not come across today. If anything new happens, I am going to add it here or write a new article if it is big enough event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This information is going to get outdated quickly.
