Heads up everyone. Another Iceland volcano has erupted. Airports in Iceland have been shut down. Weather will probably be the determining factor on where the ash cloud goes this time.
From CNN: There was "no impact on European or transatlantic flights" after the Grimsvotn volcano's eruption, and none was expected on Sunday, Europe's umbrella air traffic control association Eurocontrol said.
Last year, another Icelandic eruption, of the volcano Eyjafjallajokull, attracted worldwide attention after its ash cloud disrupted air travel across Europe.
Weather patterns this weekend have been very different from the northerly winds that swept through the region after last year's eruption, a spokeswoman for the official United Kingdom weather agency said. But she said the ash cloud's movement is difficult to predict.
Ash could reach the United Kingdom and northern continental Europe Wednesday, she said.
Chris got stuck in the UK last time and is over there now until next Tuesday, one of the Neighbours is over there for a funeral and due to fly back tomorrow. I came home overnight on the Ferry, 4hours in a force 8. I wouldn't be too worried at this stage Irish air control are a lot wiser than last time and there will be far less disruption (hopefully).
