A beautiful story from our friends at @66north on Mt. Snæfell, Iceland's highest mountain outside the glaciers, a majestic volcano often referred to as the Queen of the East. https://t.co/AsDGP2luLO

The red glow from the eruption can be seen from LAVA Centre 100 km (60 miles) away. Learn all about the eruption from our hosts and interactive exhibits at Hvolsvöllur.

🚨The authorities have closed the eruption area.

✈️ The recent volcanic eruption is located in an isolated area, posing no risk to the average visitor. Air traffic and all major attractions across Iceland remain open and fully accessible.

[Dr Robin George Andrews 🌋☄️ @SquigglyVolcano]

🚨🌋Yet another eruption has begun just north of the Icelandic town of Grindavík after a flurry of now recognisable precursory seismic activity.

(Remember: these episodic fissure eruptions are going to happen for years, probably decades, on this peninsula!)

🌋 New eruption on the Reykjanes Peninsula last night at 9:26 PM, following an earlier earthquake. 📍Location: Sundhnukar. Air travel is unaffected, and all services operate as usual. Iceland’s preparedness keeps us safe!

An eruption has just started on the Sundhnukagigaröð, just east of Mt. Sýlingarfell. Grindavík has been evacuated.
The eruption looks similar to the last one.

The Icelandic Met Office has stated that the probability of an eruption within the next 7-10 days is highly likely. If you are planning to the Blue Lagoon, you may want to wait to purchase those tickets.

The ring road at Skálmabridge has been opened with the restriction that the road is single-lane. Traffic will be controlled. Drivers are asked to be considerate and respect the signs. https://t.co/JrL7DNoif8

The Icelandic MET Office has recorded multiple M2.9 earthquakes at Katla over the last 48 hours. These tremors are likely linked to the ongoing glacial outburst but do not indicate an imminent eruption. Visit LAVA Centre in Hvolsvöllur to know more. https://t.co/WhtFmkRZoE

Short update on the current glacier outburst closing the Ring Road east from Vik. https://t.co/8SPzNxGztr

[Lava Centre @LavaCentre]

Right now the Ring Road is closed East of Vik due to Jokulhlaups (glacial runoffs) taking out the roads. You can follow live updates here at RUV's news website.

The Met Office has released their newest update on the hazard map and are expecting an eruption in the coming weeks. They have updated safety procedures and evacuation measures on their website as well.
