SHANGRALA'S
ICELAND'S
VOLCANO!
The eruption of Eyjafjallajokull volcano in Iceland is having a major
impact on travel and commerce in Europe and worldwide. The massive,
meandering clouds of ash from Iceland's volcano continued to blanket
wide swaths of Europe's air space.
About 100 million cubic meters of material has been erupted so far.
Ash fall is 30 m deep near the crater. There have been no changes in
crater size since 19th April. All London flights, including those
from Heathrow, were suspended due to volcanic ash from Iceland that
has caused over 100,000 flights to be canceled.
Now, the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre, based at the Met Office, said
only small amounts of ash were coming from Mount Eyjafjallajokull in
Iceland.
Here's Some Awesome Photos Of This Volcanic Event. Enjoy :)
Smoke billows from an erupting volcano which seems to be close to the top of
the Eyjafjalla glacier on April 14, 2010 near Reykjavik.
An aerial handout photo from the Icelandic Coast Guard shows flood caused
by a volcanic eruption at Eyjafjalla Glacier in southern Iceland April 14,
2010. The volcanic eruption partially melted a glacier, setting off a
major flood that threatened to damage roads and bridges and forcing
hundreds to evacuate from a thinly populated area.

The Markarfljot glacial river, west of the Eyjafjalla glacier. Iceland's second volcano
eruption in less than a month melted part of a glacier and caused heavy flooding on
April 14, forcing up to 800 people to evacuate and grounding some flights over Norway.

A man takes a picture of a road that has been washed away by flood water following the melting of the Eyjafjalla glacier due to the eruption of a volcano on April 14, 2010 near Reykjavik.
Smoke and steam are seen rising from the volcano under the Eyjafjalla glacier in Iceland, which erupted for the second
time in less than a month, melting ice, shooting smoke and steam into the air and forcing
hundreds of people to flee rising floodwaters.
A natural-color satellite image shows lava fountains, lava flows, a volcanic plume,
and steam from vaporized snow. The image was acquired on March 24, 2010, by the
Advanced Land Imager (ALI) aboard NASA's Earth Observing-1 (EO-1) satellite. The
lava fountains are orange-red, barely visible at the 10-meter (33-foot) resolution
of the satellite. The scoria cones surrounding the fissure are black, as is the
lava flow extending to the northeast. White volcanic gases escape from the vent and
erupting lava, while a steam plume rises where the hot lava meets snow. (The bright
green color along the edge of the lava flow is an artifact of the sensor.)
This picture taken on March 27, 2010 shows lava spurting out of the site of a volcanic eruption at the Eyjafjallajokull volcano some 125 km east of Reykjavik. With lava still gushing, a small Icelandic volcano that initially sent hundreds fleeing from their homes is turning into a boon for the island nation's tourism industry, as visitors flock to catch a glimpse of the eruption.

Up to 800 people were evacuated in Iceland early on April 14, 2010 due to a volcano eruption under the Eyjafjallajokull glacier in the south of the island, police and geophysicists said.

This Was One Of
God's Most Violent Acts Of Nature!
...And This Was Only A Category 2 or 3!
Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire
and brimstone, and an horrible tempest:
this shall be the portion of their cup.
~ Psalms 11:6
