Lava streams from the January 2024 eruption appear the warmest (yellow), while the still-warm December 2023 flows and the Blue Lagoon geothermal pool likewise stand out from the relatively cooler surrounding land. Some lava from this crack flowed toward town, while some was diverted to the west by barriers of earth and rock built beginning in November 2023 when the threat of impending danger became apparent.At 12:20 p.m. local time, a 2nd, smaller fissure opened outside of the barrier at the edge of town and exuded lava that burned three homes. A lot of recent efforts have actually taken the barrier technique like at Grindavík, aiming to reroute lava onto a less damaging path.More fights with lava may follow on the Reykjanes peninsula, as dangers remain high.
