When you read the news section on that site. It sounds like an eruption is expected in the next few weeks from another volcano on Iceland too. Not sure how near to each other the two are though.

They seem to think though that the seismic activity is not related to volcanic activity. However with a 4.6 magnitude quake registered this afternoon very close to the volcano you mention Michael, something odd is going on. That said the last uptick in 2011/12 settled with nothing significant happening. The area can’t be ignored though with some of the biggest volcanic events in history having occurred in the vicinity.

I think their biggest concern is any event (volcanic or tectonic) causing a tsunami. It's hard to know what will happen next.

It goes without saying that any eruption there would be problematic. There was a magnitude 3.9 quake there this afternoon (depth 3km) and there have been a number of quakes in the vicinity in recent weeks.

It is apparently a phenomenon known as a kvikuhlaup, which is when the walls of a magma chamber in the Earth’s crust crack due to increasing pressure inside the chamber, and magma escapes into the resulting fissure. This may lead to an eruption.

Grindavik is being evacuated as a precaution
