Apparently not footage of the current eruption, but still bad fucking ass.

Skilled piloting, the drone would have survived.  This is luck.

Volcano Erupts in Iceland Near Grindavik 

“i’m sorry, but you have no coverage for your house being burned down…”

But there is no exclusion for volcanoes in the policy - I checked!!!

“Sir, if you look at paragraph 27…right after “wood boring insects or termites”, it says ‘magma related events’ ”

Drone footage from a little over an hour and a half ago before sunset. It seems they've built an earthen dam to divert the lava away from town. That doesn't help where the fissure formed, but it seems to be working somewhat.

2 friends just landed there this morning but judging by her IG doesn’t seem to have affected them much

Yeah, I saw Tommy Lee Jones do that and it worked then too.

Since I'm not a Volconologist, but I assume Surly has at least 3-4, aren't these fisures going to be open for, like, years? Like, that town is toast, I assume, right?

So are those people are now homeless.

The last eruptive event in Reykjanes was in the 13th century and ran approximately 30 years and so yeah with Fagradalsfjall volcano erupting in March of 2021 we are basically 10% of the way there. History doesn't necessarily repeat but it does rhyme so Grindavik will be in harms way for a while as a guess.

Go start a fema  sucks thread if you want to discuss that shit.

I have a concert in Iceland.  Dropped my mixtape a few weeks before.  Sorry for partying

[Pimphand 5732]

I always thought it was crazy that Reykjavic was so close to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge was but man I didn't realize just how proper fuct they could possibly be if shit goes the wrong way over the next ~30 years.

It started erupting again over the weekend. If anyone needs a break, a guy is doing a live stream with his drone right now.
