The new volcano in Iceland near Grindavik has finally erupted tonight. It was threatening since late October and was one of the locations and settings that inspired my failed attempt at the 2023 NaNoWriMo.
I find it fascinating to watch. To the point where I can watch for hours and then all of a sudden say, “Shazbatt, it’s 23:34, and I had better post something to keep my consecutive days streak going!” It would be easy to just be watching and then have my watch beep for midnight – I would say bad words.
My favorite solo camera view is here.
The multicamera view is here.
There’s a map of where the eruption and the cameras are here.
The news (in Icelandic, but your browser should be able to translate it into English) is here.
Unlike the eruption of a couple years ago, first indications are that this will NOT be a tourist-friendly eruption. Stay home, watch it on the webcams.
