The Big Volcanic Ash from Iceland Thread

[honey lamb]

So how come the only place this is mentioned is a small west of Ireland news website? No mention on the Beeb or anywhere else as far as I can see

Isn't Katla a different type of volcano than Eyjafjallajökull so the effects might be different.

Eyja... was bad becuase it was errupting under a glacier and that generated more steam and changed the lava output into ash / dust rather than the more usual volcanic lava flows.

Apparently the difference is that Eyja... was under a little glacier, whereas Katla is under a glacier 3 miles thick!

Uh Oh!

This Map shows how close they are to each other

If you though watching the election or Eurovision was exciting you may like to be the
