Since B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano continues to be in a inflation stage this earthquake activity did not result in a movement of magma or an eruption. Two of the earthquakes were in the regular location (central caldera and north-east part of the caldera) and the earthquake at 13:09 UTC took place outside the caldera and in north-west part of the volcano. This is slightly unusual based on earlier earthquake activity in B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano. Last strong earthquake in B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano was on 19-June-2019 and this a short time between strong earthquakes in B\u00e1r\u00f0arbunga volcano. This doesn&#8217;t seems to be unusual activity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Donations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Please remember to support my work with donations. If you donate with a bank transfer.
