Bardarbunga Volcano Update; Likely Magma Movement, Alert Level Raised

The alert level of Iceland's 2nd tallest volcano was just raised after it experienced its strongest earthquake swarm in more than a decade. During this swarm, the movement of magma was likely detected, suggesting an increased potential for this glacier covered volcano to erupt in the near future. This video will discuss why a single earthquake swarm warranted this level of concern.
