It has been a while since a magnitude 5,0 or stronger earthquake happened. GPS data show continued deflation of B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano, it has slowed down since the eruption in started by the end of August, this slowed deflation of B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano shows that magma continues to flow out of the magma chambers inside the volcano. Earthquake activity in the dyke continues, all of the earthquakes so far are minor earthquakes, most having magnitude less then 2,5.<\/p>\n<p>Far as I know there is nothing else to report from B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano at present time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Change in update schedule:<\/strong> From next week I am going to change the update schedule for B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano. From next week I am just going to update two times a week. The updates are going to be on <strong>Tuesdays<\/strong> and <strong>Thursdays<\/strong>. The reason for this change is that most of the time now nothing major is happening in B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano.
