Title: Iceland Volcano waking up
Post by: Z.O.R.G. on November 12, 2023, 01:39:09 PM
Interesting that 2 volcanoes are driving warnings.  If I remember correctly, the last time a volcano erupted in Iceland air traffic was impacted for about a month.

I'd be more concerned about the Campa Flegrei supervolcano in Italy than Etna:  https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/09/europe/supervolcano-campi-flegrei-italy-earthquake-bradyseism-scn/index.html

lol.   Not to make too light of it, but after NT2C post I couldn't help myself... They've had plenty of time to evacuate so the most precious part (human life) should be safe.

After a month of buildup, the eruption has occurred. 

QuoteVidir Reynisson said the lava appeared to be flowing in all directions from a large crack in the volcano.
"The jets [of lava] are quite high, so it appears to be a powerful eruption at the beginning," he said.
