Current day to day change is not a lot at the writing of this article but it is also possible that bad weather that is now passing over Iceland is masking some of the smaller earthquakes in the dyke between Keilir mountain and Fagradalsfjall mountain.

What also changed is that the dyke can&#8217;t move more south then it already has. It seems that it hit a impasse in the crust that it was unable to break or go around (harder crust is the most common why this happens). The current status is a waiting for the eruption to start and when that happens is impossible to know.<\/p>\n<p>Since there is not a lot of change going on at the writing of this article I am going to slow down the number of updates I am posting.
