A nice #Landsat brightness temperature image from last night (ascending path). Data clipped to a union of all 9 lava outlines with the latest one on the right. Calculated from band 10 (level 1). Hotspots by the main crater and the thickest part of the lava field.

"Sir, your vehicle is emitting an excessive amount of smoke. And rock. And fire."
"Turn off the engine, please. The big, fiery one in the mountain."
"Could you pop the hood for me?

And there we have it. The 8th eruption from the #Svartsengi magma reservoir. By far the smallest one in terms of eruption time, area and volume.
Updated lava comparison map that also includes the #Fagradalsfjall eruptions.
Some field work today with Civil Protection near #Grindavik and #Svartsengi
Looking at lava barriers and cleaning some webcam lens covers. Trying to be as prepared as possible for the next one 🌋
