quote:Volcanic eruption in the Sundhnukar crater row — Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland
A new eruption began in Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland, following an intense series of small earthquakes in the Sundhnúkar crater row between Stóra-Skógfell and Sýlingarfell at 20:48 UTC on August 22, 2024.
According to an update from the Icelandic Met Office (IMO) posted at 21:58 UTC, the fissure initially expanded both north and south.
“At this point, no seismic activity is observed to the south along the magma corridor. The most seismic activity is to the north, which indicates that the magma is breaking its way to the north rather than to the south,” IMO volcanologists said.
The Aviation Color Code was raised to Red at 21:43 UTC. According to IMO, a gas-rich plume was seen rising a few hundred meters at 21:37 UTC.
The length of the eruption at 22:00 UTC was estimated at 1.4 km (0.9 miles).
Based on images captured between 21:30 and 21:50 UTC, the lava flow has traveled about 1 km (0.6 miles) in 10 minutes.
