A great find Dougie.
The piece showing the lava field at the end definitely lends to the description"Land of fire and ice".

Meanwhile in Hawaii, lava destroys first home in Pahoa;

Amazing stuff.

It's like something from an old horror movie.

Must be terrible for the residents to see the slow but definite destruction of their area.

In the latest report from Iceland says the horizontal flow has decreased.
That could prove to be interesting if it is a sign that the vent is becoming restricted.

Here is one that's worth watching - Chiles-Cerro Negro 

 

Its a volcanic complex consisting of 2 stratovolcanoes located high up in the Andes on the borders of Colombia & Ecuador. Neither volcano has had a confirmed eruption for at least 160,000 years!! 

 

However in the past year or so, serveral large earthquake swarms have begun to take place in them, the most recent and largest is the current swarm....

Between 29th Sept & 11th November 2014 there has been around 132,000 earthquakes!!! 

November 4th saw 3200 earthquakes alone.

Read the notes from the Iceland authoraties SAB, new information about the magma depth flow it'is near the surface as previous thought and if is at 1200°C at 3km from the surface could mean a larger magmatic chamber or pocket under the caldeira??

Much further south, Pico do Fogo, of Cape Verde, has erupted, the 1st time for almost 20 years;

Lots of small shallow quakes today around the Caldera. Whether this means anything I have no idea

Latest advisory from Icelandic Met Office

Scientists flew over Bárðarbunga on Wednesday, 26 November. According to data acquired in the flight, the total subsidence of the caldera is 50 meters and the volume is 1.4 cubic kilometers. No signal is now received from the station in the caldera and the most likely explanation is that has subsided below the caldera rim and is therefore out of sight of the relay station in Kverkfjöll.

Uahauu!
Patern changing or possible indications of the caldera S/SE corner as majoraty of afternoon quakes were located and a 5.2..?
