The effusive eruption at the site continues.
Fountaining is being active from two fissures now. The larger chain of vents is estimated to be about 2.4 km long. A smaller one opened west of Fagradalsfjall and its length is approx. 500 meters.
The fountain-fed lava streams ooze out towards two directions – east and west from both fissures, even though the eastern branch appears to be more active.
Meanwhile, the seismic activity has decreased early this morning.

#Grindavík | Il tasso effusivo è di 500-700 metri cubi al secondo, contro gli oltre 2.000 degli episodi più intensi di questo ciclo eruttivo. Le colate avanzano in zone prive di infrastrutture, lontane dalla Blue Lagoon e da Grindavík. Video di Sigurður Helgason pic.twitter.com/crvj5TU2Fj
