&q...Yep I saw that one reported in Iceland review.<br /><br />"This has made the Met issue a “Specialist remark” on its web. The remark is as follows:<br /><br />“Presently, there are no signs of an imminent volcanic eruption in Iceland. The Icelandic Meteorological Office (IMO) did not issue a warning last weekend in connection with increased seismicity beneath the Vatnajökull ice-cap. If signs of an eruption were apparent, IMO would issue a warning immediately. <br />The origin was an interview with a professor of geology on RÚV state radio. Páll Einarsson discussed a round of earthquakes in the northwestern part of Vatnajökull, close to Bárdarbunga. Foreign media reported on the statement.<br /><br />“It seems that media frenzy has started because of this innocent comment on Bárdarbunga,” professor Einarsson said. “Maybe a typical frenzy, where one news bureau echoes another, magnifying the story at each instant.”<br /><br />Einarsson continued in an interview with RÚV on Wednesday: “The story has gone far away from what I said in the interview on Sunday night.” <br /><br />He also pointed out that eruptions are common in Iceland and that most of them are very small and localized." <br /><br />You may relax a little.soubriquethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01151288534629885195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7555664269648250473.post-20872689350510267692011-02-11T03:28:42.355-06:002011-02-11T03:28:42.355-06:00talking of Iceland, someone on downsizer forum fou...talking of Iceland, someone on downsizer forum found this...<br />http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/top-stories/2011/02/09/warning-of-new-icelandic-volcano-eruption-115875-22909361/gzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08034777779347889773noreply@blogger.com
