Valin Posted Friday at 12:19 AM Share Posted Friday at 12:19 AM Aug 4, 2022 A new volcanic eruption recently began in Iceland just outside of the nation's capital. What was initially a 100 meter long fissure is now more than 350 meters or 1,148 feet in length and has created somewhat of a surprise. This new eruption is outputting a volume of lava which is more than 5 times higher than witnessed in a similar eruption last year. So, what will happen next? Where will the lava flow? This video will answer these two questions and the ongoing volcanic eruption.

Valin Posted Friday at 12:23 AM Author Share Posted Friday at 12:23 AM Aug 4, 2022 Drone footage of New Iceland Volcano. 4K. 30 fps. Air 2S. The new volcanic eruption started in Iceland today on August 3, 2022 at Meradalir Valley, Reykjanes Peninsula. And we went to film it. Tough hike though. 2 hours walk one way, through very rough terrain. The new fissure emitting 5-10 times more lava as compared to 2021 volcano start more than a year ago.

Valin Posted Saturday at 02:23 AM Author Share Posted Saturday at 02:23 AM Aug 5, 2022 Hello everybody, hope you're doing great and are ready for some volcano updates! So it's now been two days since an eruption began here in Iceland just 1,5km northeast of the eruption we had last year. Now we have a lot of new information and data on the eruption which I'll go over in this video. This eruption is much larger than the first eruption but its size has fluctuated a bit since it started, but this development is normal and to be expected. Like the last eruption, its size points toward a long-lasting eruption that could go on for months with the last eruption lasting 6 months. Gas will now be flying around the vicinity of the volcano and will reach certain towns when the wind blows in a certain direction and gas levels will be monitored.
