The lightning detector in our garden in Reykjavík (Kópó) detected an impressive range of lightings today, with closest lightning only about 60 km away and the farthest over 9000 km away! @blitzortung.bsky.social

Development of magma accumulation & estimated total volume of magma beneath Svartsengi. The zero point is based on the state before land uplift began in late October 2023. The total volume of magma beneath Svartsengi is now greater than what had accumulated before last eruption on Nov20, 2024.

On a short holiday in Lisbon. Beautiful city. Super happy with the 18°C & sun today ♡ I fear I will miss the onset of the next Reykjanes eruption although my colleagues are defininately on top of things back at the Iceland :) MetOffice!!!

Nice to observe that the M2.8 earthquake that occurred this morning (the Hvalhnúksfault) was recorded on the DAS and is clearly seen in the raw data, also on the N-cable we just installed. The earthquake was felt in the capital region.

It is time we move the seismometer out of the garage. My drumming sessions are killing other detections. (Me drumming from 12:40-14:10. Honduras M7.6 recorded shortly after 23:30)
