- It seems the Volcano is making progress in the fight against Icelandic Infrastructure. Will they be able to protect Svartsengi ?
THANK YOU so much for your support it is much appreciated and helps a lot !

It's about time, Hope they evacuated.
Hmm...I think maybe they will try to open again tomorrow, depending on the wind direction, of course.
Silki- thanks for keeping us up to date! Icelanders are definitely modern day warriors fighting Mother Nature!
Eating chips and blubber more likely , shame about their killing over 100 fin whales
@@MyKharli ugh, thank you for the education.
The people fighting the lava are heroes. Brave people. Oh, and you are almost at 40,000 subscribers!
Ha Ha Ha, heroes? I believe more like fools for trying to control a volcano.
Blue Lagoon doesn't get "evacuated" any more. The new word Iceland uses is "closed". The resort had to "close" for the day.
oh wow they must be really concerned
I felt all along there is much more to come from this Volcano 🌋.
the Power plant's live camera went black. 1 day after the lava crept down the hill and smooshed into the protective barrier. If another buildup of lava is on the way, the general public would once again be left out of the loop.
Morning Silki. Good report. Making coffee , Wendall
good morning ! Enjoy ☕️😃
If i recall, in rock, lava, water, lava wins.
I see a purple dragon in the drawing of the lava flow. It's narrow, lizard - like head is just touching the road. It is a very patient dragon. Patient but persistent. 'Oh, you humans,' he thinks.
Wait...doesn't lava coming in contact with water cause potential explosions that send steam, gas, and volcanic glass shards into the air? "The best laid schemes o' mice an' men gang aft a-gley." I wish these brave people all the best. Mother Earth will decide the outcome. Thank you for the update, Silki!
with sea water is worst. because the steam is chloride acid... 🤔
Well, it worked on the island in the 70's. Not sure what the difference would be.
hydrochloric acid
The Lagoonies are watching Cartoonies!
Best comment !
Thank you I try. Lol @marshayoung9387
If you line up the new land rise line's lowest point with the 5th eruption's lowest point, the new rise appears to be slightly faster.
Iceland is discovering the limits of wall-building, probably won't have much left they can do to prepare for #6 if it is anything like the last two... besides building a new power plant(s) elsewhere in case Svartsengi is lost.
thanks for the update.
I don't think that using water to stop the lava is a good idea. We saw the explosions and toxic gases produced when lava reached groundwater in the first days of the current eruption. What if the explosions caused by this chemical reaction are strong enough to open a new fissure near the power plant and Blue Lagoon?
Hi to all. Thanks for update.
I thought the water would cause an explosion!
Silki, thank you for, once again, being so straight-forward and precise in this recent report…….saying how it is and not wavering. Others duck and dive!
Was looking forward to a video from you about the whole situation.
Hiya Silki 👋 I love seeing your farm and animals 🫶 your horses are magnificent ❤ I'm in Canada also, in the north east in Quebec
Hello from Niagara Falls Ontario
🦋🇺🇸👋Good evening Silki and everyone from central Pennsylvania. Thks Silki .. Sleep well my friend
Good Morning Silki.1:19 AM in USA . Thanks again for latest update. I think we will see lava continue breaching the defense wall at Svartsengi . The situation just keeps getting worse. Even with the water I feel it may not work. The lava pool is concerning. My prayers for a better outcome than the one I fear. Love and Peace to all. Eva from USA❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hats off to the people on the front line.... Worried look -
The officials said that it was going to stop awhile back? Uhm?😮! I don't think they know! Well keep guessing! I hope they live streaming! Stay safe! Are they staying for 800 years? Wow Silki 👌!
Thanks Silky!!! 😢
From South Africa
❤
Why not use air tankers to drop excessive amounts of sea water to cool it.
Poison
Great video again, Silki! Hey, someone mentioned that they wanted you to go live so they can chat. Kind of a compromise would be for you to upload your video like before, then schedule it to be Premiered at a certain time, and then people can watch it together and Chat with each other :) It's easy, and fun. What's not to like!
Watching these volcanoes, we learn so much - we should ALL get " Degrees " on our CVs 😊
Greetings from Dublin
I'll never forget the Eldfell eruption. We watched it every day from far away in Australia. It was a massive engineering feat. It also started my fascination with volcanoes.
Hi fellow Aussie I agree I’m fascinated with volcanoes now have been watching, hopefully it will settle soon 🦘🇦🇺
Thank you for the update Silki...
MOTHER EARTH HAS BEEN TRYING TO TELL THE BLUE LAGOONIES...TO BEAT FEET AND GET OUT...😂❤
THANKS SILKI💋💋👍
It's going after the blue lagoon. Is that KARMA? How much water would they need against lava. They better start building a new power plant.
The Icelanders just have to try anything that might work. I watched the drama on Vestmannaeyar over 50 years ago on TV. They managed to save the harbour and most of the town back then. It was just as big a drama then.
It's not possible for anyone, scientist or not, to say exactly how things will progress going forward. They might just be lucky and the eruptions tapers off. That's their best bet. Then all their effort saved most of the infrastructure of the area. Had the authorities not done anything and it tapered off they would have been scolded for being irresponsible and blocked.
However they may be unlucky ! But at least they tried...
GOOD MORNING . CATCHIN up with coffee
Hello Silki from me on my boat at silly time AM in the UK watching this latest update.
Looks like the Blue Lagoon is in the sight of the lava flow, maybe it is fed up with it?
Sharing to FB 😉🍺🇨🇦
May bee an eruption at the blue lagoon ??? From Holland
Thanks Silki. A very interesting update! An uphill battle with Mother Nature.
Great update. I hope all remain safe.
Morning dear ❤🎉😊Silki.
If they would have started relocating the power plant last winter it would’ve been up and running now! All the people working hard and money spent. Let the volcano have the land!
Nice video
The Just Icelandic UA-cam channel just posted a drone video of how close the lava is to the power plant , and its scary. As much as they're fighting hard to keep suppressing the lava overall, i believe the best course would be to let it go to the sea with a man made route. Otherwise, I have a feeling that it'll just keep piling up, and eventually destroy the power plant, and there goes the Blue Lagoon with it. It may seem like just letting it go to the sea would be a bad idea. I believe if done correctly, it would be a better choice, and could add some additional land in the area. Hawaii doesn't bother fighting the lava, as they tried in the past, and it did not work there. Im not sure if Iceland being so far north, that colder temperatures slow down the lava, while Hawaii is much closer to the equator, and the lava stays hot longer. There shouldn't be any people in Grindavik right now, that the gases produced would not be an issue. Again, allowing a man made way to the sea would be my suggestion, even if it cuts off the road on the east side of Grindavik.
Do you think the lava will reach The Blue Lagoon?
I believe it will, gut instinct. Which is why the Workers have my utter respect.
But I do hope the Government, has someone working on some kind of Plan, should worse case scenario happen.
After all the Fishing/Power Plant, are essential to the economy.
Never mind worse case & the other areas, start becoming live, threatening Rekjavik & the Airport!!
Then any chance of escape, never mind sustaining humans, becomes unlikely.
Busy times again for you Silki & excellant report.
So much for those Trolls, trying to discredit you!!! 💯🫶🫶🫶👏🙏🙏🙏
🦋🇺🇸I would say the probability is high
@@BUTTERFLY31214 That’s unfortunate because that’s a world famous attraction.😢
@@johnfaulders9880 🦋yes I know but nothing is worse then losing a life .
@@BUTTERFLY31214 Very true.
Iceland my god
Thank you for yet another fantastic update and sounds like they getting desperate and will try anything but why cool the larva at the wall it come over why not cool it just round the corner and stop it there and build it up there so as to direct the larva away from the wall they could bring in the fire fighting planes and drop water on the larva from above like they did in Tenerife with the wild fires and wishing you a wonderful day and please keep safe and well
I dont think they have a grip how much water it will take to stop the flow in the 70s they had an entire ocean to barely stop the flow. now they will have to truck water do the math they dont have that many trucks. they will have to supply at least 5 xs the volume of water to even begin to effect the flow. that is physicaly impossible and that is if it all evaporates but we know most of it will run off and be wasted effort anyhoo. mother frigg is in-charge here no arrogant human beings that think they are bigger than nature. please try id like to watch anyway. if this worked we would have used this tech in HI a few years back.
I watched on TV many years back, where Hawaii tried to save a few buildings, and despite their efforts, the lava did not cool off at all, nor did it slow down. I'm thinking with Hawaii being closer to the equator, that lava doesn't cool off as easily. There are some areas from the 2018 eruption, that the old lava is very much still hot. With Iceland, I'm thinking the only reason the lava is cooling off a bit faster, has to do with being further north, and close enough to the Arctic Circle. Even then, it's not going to be enough.
@@davenwin1973 the difference between 30degrees ad 90 degrees is not even sensible to lava its like telling the difference between 71 and 72 degrees F. to see the real difference you have to look at temps in K Lava 1200k air 272 - 310K 30f - 100f the forty degree diff Vs the 900 degree dif of the hot lava it cools just as fast in HI. as in iceland I dont even think its significant even though radiative heat is a power of 4. all basaltic lava is effused at approx the same temp. i dont usually work in F so i may have made a small error in my conversions. but i think this drives the point home. It take an ocean of water to stop the flow or glacier of ice.
Seareeze.☕️😎
Silki, Thank you.
Thanks 😊👍
I understand.that the Chinese tourists, who currently make up the majority of Blue Lagoon patrons, often book a year or more in advance and do not keep track of current conditions.
Or possibly even cannot
@robhudson1501 good point.
Water will make everything worsening
I heard the gases are reaching Scotland, UK, and doubt further afield.
Thanks!
Love and Peace, Silki Eva from USA❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much
Mother Nature will win in the end. That is my opinion. Thanks for the update.
yes I think so too
Hello Silki how are you doing?
🌋
It has been gadering for 800years..
Thank you for update Silki😊 Man against nature has it's limit for sure! Using the method of spraying water on the lava to cool it down can of course help protect the defence walls but only if the series of earthquakes and new eruptions will fade significantly over the next months......I don't think neither that all underground activity in the Reykanes Peninsula is over at the end of summer.......we`ll see because that's reality......🌞.💞
This is off subject but I have heard that they might make a 2nd The Goonies movie. But I don't know if it is really true.
Creature from the Blue Lagoon
Yes, monsters there are the people who are in charge and are placing others in danger.
Sending many thanks from the UK Silki! I learn from these video's. I have such a huge fascination with these volcanos, so it's great to get your information on these deadly but beautiful natural creations ❤🙏🏻
lava lakes bursting.. 😢🙈
They are intrepid! They will not give up❤ i hope this works
Water to stop lava?... What about chemical gases, when the water hits the lava? Besides, if heavy rain can trigger eruptions, then what here? I don't think, human being should interfere in natural processes! Look at all this gases in the air, the colour...
(My friend has a spaceship) PORSCHE. I'm so lucky!!! Up next on Yt werewolf radio THE CLASH~ Should I stay or should I go? 1981
Go......
Morning Silki!!😅😅😅
Thanks so much, Silki, for your important update. Here in Denmark, Planet Earth is also indifferent to plans of we, the mere mortals may have. Here, those who decide are advising us to prepp, enough to survive for three days without water, el. food. Stock up, folks, but no need to be scared. Right. Thoughts and prayers for fellow Earthlings out there. Please (try) to stay safe!!!
Probably might be good to get some huge pumps to set up on the hill to pump sea water at massive volumes.
Doesn't water and heat make steam? Isn't steam rather dangerous both for people and structures? Could this be a possible disaster for the berms if steam forces it's way through them? Sounds like a dangerous proposition to me.
Hi Silki much love 💕😂 water 💦 on lava= steam 🚂= a faster ice age 🤔
The early lava might have heated the path, thickening as it did so. Latest could have ground the deeper paths wider allowing more lava into the upper chamber.
We can neither say what is happening or what will happen, it could get worse.
I'm gonna go get a horse trough and watch the melodrama unfold while keeping cool and drinking my chai tea. 😂😂
This is the 1st of your Iceland videos I’ve seen. What happens if the lava reaches the power plant? Big boom? 💥
I'm confused at how the lava is moving--under the layer there (which I thought this was) or above the carpet layer? Because if the lava is moving underneath the carpet and therefore raising the lava carpet, then how will they stop the flow with water? And even if the lava is building and moving on top of the current lava carpet, I would think that they would want to stop it before the wall, because the lava will keep moving and pushing over the cooled off lava. Guess you can see why I'm confused.
There are tubes being created from the hardened lava. This is the worst type of lava movement, because we don't always see it. This has happened in Hawaii, but I believe on a smaller scale, as I believe the constant heat keeps some of the lava in liquid form. In Iceland, I'm thinking the colder temperatures are turning the lava into rock faster, and also creating tubes, to insulate the lava, and allow for it to travel underneath the cooled rock. I'm thinking instead of fighting it, that a man made path along the east side of Grindavik would be best, and let it flow into the sea. If the lava enters the sea at ground level , the only thing it'll produce is poisonous gas. Now if the area was entering the sea from several feet or meters (depending on which measurement you use), and lava is entering the sea in liquid form (like what happened in Hawaii in late 2017 to early 2018), then it'll explode, as it's entering the sea at a fast pace.
So if they deter it from the power plant and blue lagoon, will the lava turn around and attack Grindavek?
if it is around Sylingarfell it will not flow back but if it builds up more and more it will block the flow and could send it back after a longer time
It is breaching again, on 6/20 7:50 PM California time, going toward the infrastructure. Yet, I think it is from the lava pond collapse. The crater had kind of shut down. Anyone haver newer news?
Is the water from the sea? What about freatic explosions as a result?
fear, be afraid, stay afraid, very afraid
The writing is on the wall . The lava wall. You guys are wondering.
When to leave. When your volcano blows there will be nowhere left to go
You cannot fool Mother Nature.
I told them; "BUILD!", I said, "BUILD UP THE WALLS!! BUILD UP THE WALLS!" Oh, the folly of mankind...
What a waste of money and energy. Mother nature will win.
Resistance is futile.
I live in the unit.
Ed states, people chose to live in New Orleans, which is below sea level. Katrina showed them what that was about.
You guys are choosing to live in a Volcano. Maybe the Volcano will. show you what that's about.
I wonder which they think is more important, the Blue Lagoon cash cow or the power plant ?😂
Isn't lava and water explosive and it's not a question of staying there for days it's for weeks. Aren't they giving the next lava flood a path to breach the wall? Perhaps they should get Tommy Lee Jones.
Leave Nature Alone!
Please turn down your microphone gain. It is far over the threshold and results in even more dramatic sound, that you really do not need, Silki
the place is starting to look like mordor from lord of the rings. not a place for turism
Sorry guys nature will win every time !
It's ok its ending in July 😅😂
Stop sinning in Iceland
You must be doing inhuman activity
I still remember that event back then , when they saved that port by using water to stop the lava..
And I think the USA military 🪖 helped in that effort 😮
It was in the news...
