With essentially no warning, a new eruption has started just minutes ago on Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula A volcano in Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula has suddenly erupted without warning, sending huge fountains of lava blasting hundreds of feet into the air. The volcanic blast is the latest in a series of eruptions which have been rocking the peninsula since December.
‘Warning: An eruption began in Reykjanes,’ the Icelandic Meteorological Office said on its website, while Reykjavik’s nearby Keflavik Airport’s website showed it remained open both for departures and arrivals. Volcanic outbreaks in the Reykjanes peninsula are the result of so-called fissure eruptions, which do not usually cause large explosions or significant dispersal of ash into the stratosphere.
