Grímsvötn Eruption Satellite Images

by Harry on May 22, 2011

There were a few satellite images that have been generated from satellite data over the past 24 hours.

The always excellent Icelandic Meteorological Office has posted the following image generated at around 5 in the morning today (original here).

Another spectacular animation was generated yesterday immediately after the eruption by the GOES Project Science at NASA. Click on the image to see the animation – loading might take a while.
