Erupting activity in decline! Equlibrium reached. Latest update on the fissure and lava flows. 6 am.

The new eruption rather seems to be reducing in power. It can be seen on both seismometers and GPS meters. Reducing activity is not an indication of how long the eruption will last, but rather that the eruption is reaching the equilibrium. This pattern has been seen in the beginning of all the eruptions on the Reykjanes Peninsula in recent years.

It continues to erupt along the entire fissure with the greatest force being in the center of the fissure.

The fissure is a total of over 4 km long and the northern end of the crack is just east of Stóra-Skógfell Mt while the southern end is just east of Sundhnúkur crater, slightly north of Hagafell. The distance from the southern end to the edge Grindavík city is almost 3 km.
