It's very grey and nothing seems to move now. Weren't there a site with a webcam following the process?

Can't call a burger "volcano" unless they offer jalapenos.

Volcano Burgers got jalapenos?

It's not so much a hot/spicy burger as it is a delicious one.


Honestly, the double cheese is burger nirvana--the best burger I've ever had.

Seems like everyone in Norway (and in Britain) is stuck at the airports. Didn't know volcano dust was that dangerous!

Yes,I've just heard this on the French TV half an hour ago .They said the smoke is so thick that the planes can't neither land,nor take off.

I recall seeing a science program about one of Krakatau's eruptions causing an exceptionally cold season in the middle-ages which in effect destroyed or set back various cultures around the world. Years of blocked sun and the resulting cold weather & famine.

to brits :
you say we owe you cash, but then we send you ash,, smiling smiley


yes life in Iceland is never predictable, but it has side effects. that is for sure...
first bankruptcy with all kind of side effects regarding other nations
then we get 2 volcanos, resulting in closing down airports in countries far away..



what next...?
cant wait for the 7'oclock news... smiling smiley

from icelandic news :
force of the volcanic eruption under the Eyjafjallajökull glacier appears to be steady, although last night and this morning there has been explosive activity that is associated with volcanic ash fall.

The extent of the ash fall in the immediate vicinity of the glacier is being investigated. Samples have been collected and have been sent for examination. Preliminary findings indicate that the area around the glacier, and Myrdalsandur, to the east, have been affected.

The volcanic ash has fallen to ground unevenly and sporadically, in some places in a layer up to 3 mm thick. Inhabitants of the area describe the ash as being black to grey in colour and very fine, similar to flour or sugar grains. Volcanic ash fall has also seriously restricted ground visibility in some areas. Scientists do not discount the risk of further volcanic activity and associated risk of flooding. The flow of water into the glacial lagoon is being closely monitored. Cloud cover over the glacier makes observation of the eruption from the ground difficult.

The Police have restricted travel on roads into Vík and Myrdalsandur in the west, and to Kirkjubæjarklaustur in the east. Repair work continues on the bridges in Markarfljót. Those travelling by road in the south of Iceland are requested to drive with caution.

International weather observatories in co-operation with the Icelandic Met Office are monitoring the weather conditions and the projected path of the volcanic ash cloud, which in the present conditions is being carried towards Europe and Scandinavia. Air travel restrictions have been implemented in several European countries.

It's really weird to see burning snow - and terrible to be stranded in Oslo, when I'm supposed to be in LA... Buhuuu.
And they say this eruption could go on for 2 years! I hope air traffic's working again before it's time to head off to the London Olympics.

Lockdown mode must be implemented. I'm not sure if volcanic ash is carcinogenic, however, I wouldn't take chances. Perhaps seclusion in the bathroom with fan running is your best bet.

Let's not hope Katla / Laki get's alive in the near future - then airtraffic and at lot of other things will get much worse. Things were very bad in 1780'ies.
If that happens - forget another Stones consert.
