Impressive video from Grindavík, the city closest to the intense seismic sequence currently taking place. There the vibrations can be felt almost continuously. I turned up the volume and heard the sound of the house shaking. State of emergency declared in #Grindavik, Iceland, after thousands of #earthquakes and tremors across the country. There were approx. 590 earthquakes in the last 6 hours. Since late October, over 24,000 tremors have been registered, with numerous individuals experiencing the strong shaking caused by the #earthquakes due to magma rising from the ground. Unprecedented seismic activity in Grindavík, the magma tunnel has expanded, reaching the sea. Larger than any recent activity on the Reykjanes. GPS shows major 120 cm shift in hours. This is massive movement. Stay alert. Live conference: Evacuation could last several days Eruption more likely to be like Holuhraun in 2015 than recent Geldingadalir events, says professor of volcanology. Holuhraun was the largest eruption for 300 years
