Katla eruption

Tonight a flood from volcano Katla has disrupted highway no.1 in Iceland. Scientist say it might be a result of a small eruption in the glacier. Hekla volcano is also said to be ready to erupt. Good times. :D

Re: Katla eruption

Thanks for the update, Doc. Keep your lungs clear ;)

Though, I have to say that there is something completely compelling about a battle between a volcano and a glacier. In sort of an irresitable force meets immovable object kind of way.
