Hi all

There is a intresting earthquake swarm going on in Iceland at the
moment. The main fracture area is located near 66,023 and -18,248. The
largest earthquake recorded so far is mag 3.5 and it was followed by a
dosent or so smaller earthquakes, but there have been smaller
earthquakes happening all day and are still happening every 10 - 45 min
or so. So far there has been recored 67 earthquakes (based on IMO data).
I have been able to detect earthquakes down to ML1.8 during the night. I
subspect that there might be a larger earthquake coming, becose the
smaller earthquakes have been coming more dense and more of them since
this earthquake swarm did start yesterday. The area that is moveing
appears to be a line that is NW-SE, as it appears on the IMO maps.

Regards.
