The lava that now flows along the dike north of the Blue Lagoon has not flowed as far to the west in previous eruptions this year. Is it good now to get to the parking lot at the Blue Lagoon?

Po tom, čo sopka vybuchla už siedmykrát za tento rok, sa láva dostala k turisticky obľúbenému geotermálnemu kúpalisku Modrá lagúna, ktorého parkovisko dnes úplne zaliala, informuje BBC. Sopečná aktivita je pomerne stabilná a nezdá sa, že by sa cez noc nejako zvlášť znížila, uvádza islandský web Iceland Monitor. Podľa modelov lávových prúdo…
