Katla shows signs of increased activity
8 Jun 10 - Fears are growing that the Katla volcano in Iceland -
larger and more dangerous than Eyjafjallajökull - could soon erupt.
Oddly, the media is not yet reporting on this dramatic increase.

Iceland president tells Europe to get ready for Katla
Eyjafjallajoekull only a "small rehearsal."
"The larger Katla volcano, right next to it, usually erupts every century,
and the last eruption was in 1918. The time for Katla to erupt is coming
close. It can create, for a long period, extraordinary damage to modern
advanced society."

Two, maybe three, quakes at Katla
21 May 10 - If you look at the map you will see two, maybe three,
quakes at Katla and a cluster of quakes at Eyjafjallajokull. Perhaps

warning to Europe concerning Katla.

Uh-oh! Katla Volcano Just Rumbled
17 May 10 -  The Iceland Met office reports that a small
earthquake has occurred at the Katla location. Although a
single earthquake does not guarantee an eruption, it could
be the first ’sigh’ of the awakening giant.

Many more Iceland volcanoes seem to be stirring
16 May 10 – At least three other big Icelandic volcanoes are building
towards an eruption, says volcanologist. Laki cooled the entire northern
hemisphere for nearly three years, causing crop failures and famines
that killed 2 million people and helped trigger the French Revolution.

Iceland volcano - Major Global Disaster in the Making
By Gordon Gekko
10 May 10 - "It is likely that either the authorities are underestimating
the potential for a far bigger eruption and subsequent devastation or ... simply
hiding the facts from the public so as not to “rock the boat” i.e. keep the
sheeple calm and let them go about their slavery as usual. Virtually no steps
are being taken to inform/prepare the public if this eruption takes a turn for
the worse, and evidence seems to be increasing that it will.

Is Katla beginning to act up? 6 May 10 - Yesterday I wondered if Eyjafjallajökull might be a precursor to an eruption at nearby Katla volcano. Lo and behold, the first sign of seismic activity may have occurred at Katla. I say may, because this website showed an earthquake there yesterday, but today the map has been changed. See Is Katla beginning to act up?

 

Yes, an earthquake at Katla
7 May 10 - Email from reader. "There was definitely a magnitude 3 
earthquake under the glacier at Katla."
See Yes, an earthquake at Katla
 

Eyjafjallajokull acting up again

Iceland volcano closes airspace over Northern Ireland - Again  
5 May 10 -Scientists worry that Eyjafjallajökull could trigger an eruption
at  nearby Katla volcano. But I wonder: Is it possible that, rather than being
a trigger, Eyjafjallajökull is actually a precursor to a Katla eruption?

Eyjafjallajökull - What next?
26 Apr 10 - Put this volcano together with Chaiten, toss in a
few more, and I think we have the makings of an ice age.

Stunning photos of Iceland volcano against
breathtaking backdrop of Northern Lights

23 Apr 10 - The volcano under the Eyjafjallajökull glacier was
spewing far less ash yesterday, but the volcano is still very much
active, "throwing magma chunks the size of cars into the air,
bubbling lava and producing tremors."

A Natural disaster ... but a man-made catastrophe
25 Apr 10 - "The ash cloud that never was: How volcanic plume
over UK was only a 20th of safe-flying limit and blunders led to
ban." We're willing to let politicians such as these control our
lives when it comes to the environment? They'd destroy our
economy in the blink of an eye ... all with the utmost of good
intentions of course.

Eyjafjallajokull volcano eruption continues, but slower
26 Apr 10 - However, it's still spewing out 22 to 44 tons of magma a second.
