Here are some images of the Iceland volcanic ash plume as seen by this
morning's noaa19 overpass at 0448z. The activity seems to have increased considerably. http://www.woksat.info/etcse06/indexse06.html -- Bernard Burton Wokingham, Berkshire, UK. Weather satellite images at: www.woksat.info/wwp.html |

Weather satellite images at:www.woksat.info/wwp.html I think holidaymakers with plans to travel abroad should be hoping for a summer that is anything but the blocked Atlantic that we've already had a couple of times. The SW hoteliers and tourist industry must be hoping for exactly that. Whether this will continue, or stop tomorrow, is impossible to predict, but there's more than a chance of this continuing and certainaly a chance that it may get worse. Much worse would not be desirabe at all and doesn't really bear thinking about! |

.... from this morning's Met Office bulletin (via:-
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/...t_weather.html ) " Volcanic Ash Update The latest information from the Icelandic Met Office states that the ash plume from Eyjafjallajokull briefly reached heights of up to 32,000 feet during Wednesday evening. The plume is being blown southwards, away from Iceland and to the west of Ireland. The ash cloud currently over southwestern Britain should clear away through the course of today. Issued at 0648 on Thu 06 May 2010. " seems as if the eruption has, at least temporarily, become more intense - impacting the stratosphere (this was commented-upon in another post). Martin. -- Martin Rowley West Moors, East Dorset (UK): 17m (56ft) amsl Lat: 50.82N Long: 01.88W NGR: SU 082 023 |

Assessment - 05 May 2010 20:50
Increased seismicity suggests that new material is intruding from deep below Eyjafjallajökull and latest GPS-observations suggest inflation. So far, GPS-signals are not large. Plume at 5.5-6.5 km height (a.s.l.) according to IMO's weather radar. Due to mild weather and snowmelt, increase in discharge was noticed in Markarfljót peaking at midnight. Discharge from Gígjökull seems to be decreasing and oscillations in water temperature at the old Markarfljóts bridge relate to air temperature. Pulses of mel****er from Gígjökull are unnoticeable. Lava flows to the north and spreads at 500 m a.s.l. The lava tongue is about 200 m wide and lava channels that join at the tongue are about 30-60 m wide. The lava channels gets wider every day. There are no signs that the eruption is about to end. "Bernard Burton" wrote in message ... Here are some images of the Iceland volcanic ash plume as seen by this morning's noaa19 overpass at 0448z.
