Eyjafjallajökull Eruption – Update MAY 2
Posted by feww on May 2, 2010
Eyjafjallajökull Quietly Erupting
Volcanic Activity Report: May 02, 2010
Icelandic Met Office reported plume elevations and lava discharge levels close to the average activity during the past week. Lava is till flowing in a northerly direction from the crater and cascading down the Gígjökull glacier. “Today’s explosive activity and ash production represents a fraction of conditions during the height of the eruption (14-17 April). Presently, there are no measurable indications that the eruption is about to end.”

No new photo was available, as of posting, neither at the Institute of Earth Sciences nor Icelandic Met Office websites, presumably to prevent commercial exploitation [sic.]
