The earthquake at 03:04 UTC was felt in Reykjav\u00edk but I don&#8217;t have any reports about the earthquake at 15:49 UTC with same magnitude being felt. It is difficult to know what this earthquake activity means but for now the idea is that this earthquake activity might be connected to stress changes because of the magma dyke connected to the eruption in Fagradalsfjall mountain that is happening within same volcano system.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nDonation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is possible to support my work with one donation or a regular donation by using the PayPal feature on the right side of the website.
