Volcano watch 2010

eldgos.mila.is...

I like these views today, vodafone is too cloudy

and I dont know whats up with that bottom cam, seems they wake up in the middle of the afternoon and reposition it.

Watch out for volcanoes... 7.8 (Indonesia) in the ring of fire, as many of you are aware.

what I posted was already posted.. never mind

Clear view today, those cones have certainly grown quite a bit.

closer view on this cam too today.

I was just going to post that we got a whole new view on Mila Cam, there are three cams there now. You can see trucks and snowmobiles, at least I did a few minutes ago. Way cool!

Wow, if you are here - Take a look at the cam. Awesome. Lava shooting out and being spread out all over the dome. It is dusk and perfect viewing. We have choppers, vehicles and folks pretty close - I hope they have suits on because it's going nuts

hey guys i,m new to the volcano thing but i am watching it and is it supposed to be doing that?

Hi There, yes, that is what erupting volcanoes do! :-) Although, this one is picking up steam so to speak and has over the past week or so.

I hear ya re all-nighters - I'm exhausted - thank goodness I work from home!

Fimmvorouhalsi has been great viewing today - amazing to see how much the cones and surrounding terrain has changed over time

The new cam (number 3) is a cool view too - from Valahnjúk eldgos.mila.is...

Watching the volcano show on Mila cams.. hoo boy!

Someone should fly over that lava cone and drop in a bunch of fireworks, heheh... that would be a show huh?

It's great, isn't it - have been watching as it gets light... it's beautiful.

I watched two people walk up the road a little while ago,then I went to make some food and when I came back the clouds had come down, looks like zero visibility, hope they don't wander into the lava!

Yep, I am sorta concerned for those two people.. I mean, they were walking, not snowmobiling...and its really cloudy and dark on top there at the moment

Can you use the vodaphone site where you can go back through the cam shots to see if they came down while you were doing food?

reply to post by MoorfNZ


nah, different view

So you didn't see them? I was only away from pc for 10 minutes, that cloudage came down fast.

reply to post by berkeleygal


No, I didn't have the volcano cams on Note the time etc, just in case.

reply to post by MoorfNZ


I saw them about 11:15 my time, so it's been about a half an hour. It may not be so bad tho, they may be able to see, it might not be so thick at ground level.

reply to post by berkeleygal


I would not be worrying about it. That cam is zoomed so the effect is going to look much worse.

If you look at the other cams you can see that it is not actually that bad. As to walking into it I think the noise would alert them!! We may be sat here watching this in silence, but believe me it is not silent.

I would give anything to be able to hear that volcano!

Well, Mt. Etna is belching. I read it on a new thread. Nothing really on news yet.

I gotta go on a 4 hour road trip, back later
