Iceland Geology #6 - Volcano Warning Near the Blue Lagoon and KEF Airport
Click on CC for full description and check the links below for detailed information but the Reykjanes peninsula is the youngest landmass of Iceland and the last eruption was in the 13th century so this is big news.
Update January 28. 18:00 GMT
Land continues to rise and there was a meeting in Grindavík yesterday to prepare the 3500 villagers to evacuate the area in case of an eruption.. 1500 people are at any given time by the Blue Lagoon and the Svartsengi Power Plant so they would also be evacuated to emergency centres in Keflavík and Kópavogur. There is still an earthquake swarm going on and the biggest one was measured 3.1 at 6km depth yesterday.
Keflavík Airport remains on warning code yellow
It's not possible to say if it's gonna be an eruption there but this might just be the start of process that could take months or years to reach the surface. Or today or tomorrow.
I'm making a more detailed video with areal photographs to explain this better from the Icelandic mentality toward earthquakes and volcanoes. It will be online in the next 24 hrs.
Report in English from the MET office.

Support our channel :
Eldvorp is a crater row of scoria and spatter cones located northwest of Grindavik on the Reykjanes peninsula in Southwest Iceland.Eldvörp is a geosite in Reykjanes Unesco Global Geopark.
The area has extensive geothermal activity, emanating steam of about 280 degrees Celcius. The lava from the crater row is one of the most extensive Holocene lava flows on the Reykjanes Peninsula, covering about 20 km2.
In former times, local women would bake their bread in the warm steam of Eldvorp.

Iceland Geology #7 - Mt. Thorbjorn Volcano Warning Update
Click on CC for subtitled since I didn't manage to make a voice over but this is the currant status and I'm adding info in the description if and when something happens.
UPDATE.... January 31 23:00 GMT
The land-rise is now 4cm and new earthquake swarm star started today north-west of the town. The biggest earthquakes so far was tonight or Mw4.3 and 3.4 so they where felt in Reykjavík and all the way to Akranes as well. Aftershock swarm is still going on but it's no sign of lava reaching the surface but here is direct link to real-time earthquake view of Iceland:

2016-06-06 - Grindavik, Iceland
This was the last flight in Iceland, on the way back to the airport. It was very windy and at one point I had lost the drone in one of the ravines. Walking on the thick spongy moss to find it was like being on another planet. Unfortunately I forgot to hit record on the flight that had the crash. There is a brief glimpse of the Gindavik coat of arms on a sign about half way through.

The Blue Lagoon ( Icelandic Bláa lónið ) geothermal spa is one of the most visited attractions in Iceland. The spa is located in a lava field in Grindavík on the Reykjanes Peninsula,southwestern Iceland.
Blue Lagoon is situated 20 km (12 mi) from the Keflavík International Airport and 39 km (24 mi) from the Reykjavík city, roughly a 21-minute drive from the airport and a 50-minute drive from Reykjavík.
The warm waters are rich in many minerals like silica and sulfur and bathing in the Blue Lagoon is reputed to help some people suffering from skin diseases such as psoriasis.
The water temperature in the bathing and swimming area of the lagoon averages 37–39 °C (99–102 °F).
The Blue Lagoon also operates a research and development facility to help find cures for other skin ailments using the mineral-rich water.

Iceland 2018
Iceland. This is a brief look glimpse at our trip to The Top Of The World. We witnessed God's great beauty in so many facets here on the island. Our journey led us on a tour of the South Coast and the Golden Circle with many different waterfalls to be experienced. We tasted many local dishes featuring Whale, Wolffish, Cod, Haddock, Char, Salmon and other varieties of seafood. We slept under the stars in The Bubble Hotel where the snowy northern skies were on full display. Reykjavik was welcoming as the locals were friendly and inviting to share their culture. The Aurora Borealis did not disappoint as The Northern Lights danced magically under the midnight stars. We finished with a chance to relax and harmonize with nature in a spa of the volcanic earth at the Blue Lagoon Retreat. The best moment of our trek was when both of our prayers were answered. Audry accepted my proposal for marriage making this truly a Top Of The World experience.

Quick video of my trip to the Blue Lagoon in Grindavík, Iceland. I went for a 6pm slot and it got so dark it was a real struggle to see, but I enjoyed it none the less. My first trip to natural geothermal pool also. Was so hot and relaxing, and the swim up bar helped too!

Brimketill - Reykjanesvirkjun - Swiming in Iceland

The foaming cauldron Brimketill, on of Iceland´s great natural wonders. It is believed that a troll bathed here.
Lava field at Brimketill.
Grindavík, Reykjanes south Iceland - 63.85°N 22.45°W
Leaving Reykjanes, the road turns east towards the cliffs at Staðarberg. As it passes one of the region¹s many salmon farms, a narrow path forks off to the right towards the shore and Brimketill, a strange formation of rock and sea well worth a visit.
Brimketill við Kvennagöngubása úti á Reykjanesi ekki langt frá Grindavík.
Brimketill skemmtileg skálaformuð grjótarmyndum í sjávarborðinu, Brimketill nálægt Staðarbergi er einn af vinsælustu náttúruperlum á Reykjanesi
Í góðu veðri má finna ákjósanlega baðstaði úti á Reykjanesi, Brimketil nokkurn sem myndast hefur í klettunum við ströndina. Dýpið er mest um 2 metrar og botninn bæði sléttur og þægilegur. Sagan segir að kvennfólk hafi baðað sig þarna fyrr á öldum.
Ekki langt frá þessum stað, rennur heitt vatn sem er svipað að stærðagráðu og Elliðará - ónýtt beint í sjóinn! Þar er líka hægt að baða sig - en þó aðeins á vissum stöðum!
En heita vatnið frá Reykjanesvirkjun rennur ónýtt beint í sjóinn. Lítið mál ætti að vera að útbúa flotta sundlaug fyrir ferðamenn við sjávarsíðuna
litlum hluta þess vatns í brimketilinn.
Ég útbjó smá video sem sýnir vel aðstæður á þessum stöðum sem skoða má á Youtube hér (hægt að skoða í HD gæðum):
Það mætti hugsa sér að útbúa svona laugar við sjáfvarsíðuna við Reykjavík þar sem hlaupafólk og fl. gætu fengið sér bað á góðum degi!
