Hello and welcome back to RVK Newscast! In this episode, Valur and Pollý visit the recent eruption at Meradalir to show you the smoking lava field of the supposedly deceased volcano. Read on for more info and links!

The volcano in Fagradalsfjall appears to have fizzled out, although it’s too early to officially declare its death. Volcanologists say that this might only be the beginning of the volcano series in Fagradalsfjall and Icelanders can rest assured that there will be more volcanos in the Reykjanes Peninsula in the coming years.
