The ground in some areas has deformed (moved) almost FOUR FEET in THREE hours! Whatever is going on underneath it, is big.
This will probably be a big volcanic eruption: the dike intrusion near Grindavik that began yesterday caused ground shifts of 120 cm (yes, centimeters). Within three hours. In the last Fagradalsfjall eruption it was 10 cm in one week. Data: https://t.co/7cXRnZ25Lm https://t.co/4oUJrgUuq5

The last time a volcano (Mount Eyjafjallajökull) erupted in Iceland, flights to and from the US to the UK were cancelled for nearly 3 weeks if i remember correctly!
(HT REMARK: Oh boy. i wonder if this is going to happen again.)
