Hmmmmmmm
So Katlabump. Xx

Is she erupting or what? 0,0 km depth

it's not looking good Luis...

If she goes it will be a Eurexit!

And this!

The link doesn't work

So there were two big-ish quakes in Katla today.

A 3.0 and a 3.3.
Both at 0.0km depth.
Both with the 99.0 so they've been checked by the experts.

New “daily” star at Katla. Daily since there is almost one per day now. Or not. 😀 Kinda like Bardarbunga. Tho to be honest, “pre-eruptive” (not that Katla will erupt tomorrow,but I classify everything following up to the eruption being pre-eruptive, even if eruption is 10 years away. Mainly meaning pre-eruptive as in a system able to erupt in a near future) daily stars at Katla are much more interesting to follow than the post-eruptive ones.

why are they happening at ZERO depth?

is the top of the caldera cracking?

Exactly.Depth 0.0 km = between 1 m to 99 m.This is really serious

That. PBS video was informative, thank you.

So if I heard right, the big Katla eruption was in the 940s or so. A sword has now just appeared from the 950s, per the article.

That's all I need to know...

Great thread, Luis

WTH? No way that is wind.

And this two are very interesting...

Looks like another water (hydrothermal) phase is ongoing around Hamarinn area, likely around Skafta cauldrons.

Fresh earthquake activity in Katla volcano
Posted on September 11, 2016 by Jón Frímann

Today at 12:19 UTC an earthquake swarm started in Katla volcano. This has been mostly normal earthquake activity for Katla volcano, with earthquakes that are small in magnitude and most not reaching magnitude 2,0. Largest earthquake took place at 15:57 UTC and was a magnitude 3,0 and at magnitude 16:12 UTC and had the magnitude of 3,3.

It is difficult to know if this earthquake activity was due to change in hydrothermal systems that exist in this area or due to magma or gas pressure changes. No harmonic tremor changes have taken place following this earthquake activity. Since the largest earthquakes happened the activity has quieted down considerably. This earthquake activity or a new one might start without warning in Katla volcano.
