“Unprecedented,” say experts. Look at the number of earthquakes in the last 48 hours!
Southwestern Iceland was rocked by a series of earthquakes Wednesday. According to geological experts, the epicenter of the main quake was located near Mt. Keilir, roughly 30 km (19 miles) south of the capital Reykjavik.
Experts say shocks from the quake, which registered 5.7 in magnitude, sparked increased volcanic activity, triggering a number of aftershocks registering over 4.0 for hours after the initial quake hit.
“I’ve never experienced or felt so many strong earthquakes in such a short period of time. It’s unusual,” Icelandic Meteorological Office’s (IMO) earthquake hazards coordinator Kristin Jonsdottir told Icelandic public broadcaster RUV.
Experts are used to intense geothermal activity in Iceland but say the amount of rumbling at the moment is unprecedented
Though the region has yet to experience eruptions as a result of the increased activity, the IMO nevertheless raised aviation warnings from green to yellow over the Krysuvik volcano system.
The last eruption to occur in the area was in the 12th century but more recently, the eruption of Iceland’s more southerly Eyjafjallajokull volcano over six days in 2010 caused massive disruption to international air travel, affecting as many as 10 million travelers.
The Reykjanes peninsula, located on a tectonic fault, has been rocked by numerous earthquakes for more than a year.

In those 2 previous instances, we were not going through a 7-year tribulation period.
Cheap hydro electric power! Free cooling! Outdoor hot water baths! Blond, system administrators! What’s not like? ;)

Actually, volcanos typically emit cooling gasses (mainly SO2) and particulates (block sunlight) that override the effects of greenhouse gases emitted. So, if a mega-eruption occurs, cooling occurs. Our efforts to reduce AWG might backfire...

Might need a double mask.<
good one
And to throw an Icelandic volcano into the “climate effects” discussion:

(Initially there was a hot summer in Europe, but cooling followed in many places, including North America. The Mississippi River reportedly froze as far south as New Orleans. Imagine what that kind of weather would do to a non-winterized power grid!)
That was my point, though poorly said
Well al, what does your cousin johnf’in say about it?

I chased it with pepto bismol and still threw up.
Tidal heating can and does occur in our solar system, mainly with small planetary bodies such as the moons of the gas giant planets, particularly Jupiter, and to a far less extend even with the earth-moon system. It’s actually the sole explanation for why there is volcanism on Jupiter moons Io and Europa. However, in that case you have a massive planet like Jupiter with its enormous gravitational field pulling on and contorting the surfaces of comparatively tiny moons.
On the other hand, with the earth-moon system, the gravitational interactions are comparatively weak, resulting in some heat generation and the creation of the tides. The primary source for the interior heat of the earth has long since known to be radioactivity from heavy elements deep in the interior.
Mine stayed down.
Then I played trivia with Icelandic lesbians in The Big Lebowski bar...

You are correct. It begins when the Beast, the Antichrist confirms a 7-year peace deal.
It will be for “peace and security” - already that is the Globalist’s catch phrase for it.

yes
yes
People are going to start calling you "Jimmy Two Times"!

A friend of mine visited Iceland a couple years ago. Her tour group went to go see Eyjafjallajokull volcano (yeah, pronounce THAT!).
She said it was an awesome thing to see. I forgot to ask her how it's pronounced, LOL.
