Rumblings in Reykjanes

Over the last few days, there have been over 10 000 earthquakes on the Reykjanes peninsula, between Reykjavik and Keflavik airport. They have shaken the city of Reykjavik and nearby settlements such as Grindavik.

These are mostly centred on the area around a dormant relict peak called Keilir.

There is coverage on VEDUR, also Reykjavik Grapevine and MBL.IS and other sites that have been featured on this blog in the past.

A webcam has been set up facing the location:


Thanks to Ben Hennig for the updates.

It seems like an eruption might be possible (or not, depending on which source you look at).

And check out this 360VR for more, and to see where Reykjavik is in relation to the activity.
One to follow....
