precipitation.
A strong reflection may be observed though precipitation does not reach the ground, i.e. when water droplets evaporate while falling.
The weather radar laser beam is cone shaped and therefore the farther away a signal is the higher in altitude it needs to be to be detected.
At a distance of 100 km from the weather radar the laser beam does not detect signals which are under 1000 m from

extruded. At 07 AM the lava flow was around 1 km wide and 3 km
long towards northeast. The thickness was estimated a few meters, the flow rate about 1000 m3
per second. There has been poor visibility until 11:30 UTC, then it has been moderate. The
eruptive fissure is visible since then and magma extrusion is still ongoing. White steam rising from
the eruption is also visible.

is slightly higher. Conductivity measured in
Jökulsá á Fjöllum at the bridge north of Vaðöldu, in the Rjúpnabrekkukvísl and in the Köldukvísl is
similar what was measured at the same time yesterday.
Conditions at eruption site
No eruption.
Seismic tremor
Strong low-frequency (~1Hz) tremor has not been detected since yesterday at 13:00.
Earthquakes
More than 1000 earthquakes have been
