TL;DR Summary

Authorities in Iceland have warned of a "high likelihood" of a volcanic eruption as hundreds of earthquakes continue to shake the Reykjanes Peninsula. The coastal town of Grindavik has been evacuated, and residents have been allowed back briefly to gather necessities. The Icelandic Meteorological Office has been monitoring seismic activity, including the formation of a large magma chamber. While it remains uncertain where the magma will reach the surface, the possibility of air traffic disturbance from an eruption cannot be ruled out.
