In a surprise move the activity in Fagradalsfjall mountain (part of Kr\u00fdsuv\u00edk-Tr\u00f6lladyngja<\/a> volcano system) started to increase again around 16:00 UTC and around that time the first lava was seen in the crater after it had emptied it self out during the night as was mentioned in last article. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have been following eruptions for a long time and this is the first time that I see this happen in a crater eruption. Normally when they collapse in this way the eruption is normally over. In this case the magma cleared out the rock from the collapse over few hours (it just goes down the stream with the lava) and the eruption started as the pressure did build up again in the deep magma system. Harmonic tremor has increased again since 16:00 UTC. I don’t know if it has reached its maximum yet. That is possible, but difficult to be sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is impossible to know for sure what this eruption does next. Since this eruption seems to be breaking a lot of the normal rules that happens during an eruption. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently there is a lot of lava flowing into N\u00e1tthagi and possibly also into Geldingadalir that is already full of lava and is about to overflow at lowest points in next few days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
