    Blaahh... nothing exciting, eruptions in Iceland aren't explosive.
    It's part of mid-Atlantic Ridge and there's always volcanic activity in it because Atlantic ocean is widening.

    BTW, traces of ash from eruption has been detected above northern Finland.

    Page is Finnish, but isn't it that picture tells more than thousands words.
    (model of spreading of ash four days after start of the eruption)

    Lots of Plate Techonic Actvity going on.... Yawn... I wonder why there have not been any Bible Thumpers going around saying its the end of the world or some bull shit like that.
  • SanfamSanfam I like clocks.
    Because it's not the end of the world.

    It's not like Iceland doesn't exist anymore. It just so happens that a medium event occured that produced a large-ish pyroclastic cloud.

    Now, if for some reason, say, the entire region of Yellowstone Park blew up on November 3rd of 4th...THAT would be the end of the world (or at least a good chunk of the US), but go check out the previous Volcano thread for information on that.
