The magma chamber threatening the grindavik area has erupted again just before 8:00am.
A close up view frown Professor Shawn Willsey’s livestream showing just how close the southern fissure is to town.

A few hours later, a structure in northern Grindavik closest to the southern fissure appears to have caught on fire.
If there is any good news to be found, the eruption appears to have lost a bit of its initial thunder.
