No idea if this is unusual.[/QUOTE]
I've read about this! It's something to do with particles reflecting light from over the horizon. After the Krakatoa eruption, you could read a newspaper in London at midnight without any artificial illumination! :D
Scratch that, ohshit here it comes.
Oh shit, Iceland's biggest volcano is expected to erupt soon. Its crater has a diameter of 7 kilometers, erupts every 40-60 years and last eruption was in the year 1918.
leather armour is the best defence for this kind of thing
Still fuck all :v:

Iceland didn't steal your money, owners of privately owned banks did and then left us to deal with the consequences. We're no better off with the Icelandic taxpayer having to earn and pay back 5 times the amount Germany had to pay back after WW2.

This is from the Norwegian meteorological institute, made a gif animation of their powerpoint file.

:siren:[highlight][b]UK airspace will now be closed until 0100 BST (1AM tomorrow morning) at a minimum:[/highlight][/b]:siren:
[quote]Flights across the UK are to remain grounded for a second day as volcanic ash from Iceland drifts across Europe.
At 0830BST, the air traffic control body Nats extended its unprecedented restrictions on UK airspace until at least 0100BST on Saturday.
However, a small number of services will be permitted into and out of Northern Ireland and western Scotland.
The continuing volcanic eruption caused cancellations across Europe amid fears the ash could cause engine failures.
Experts say the tiny particles of rock, glass and sand contained in the ash cloud from the still-erupting volcano could jam aircraft engines, as has happened in previous incidents of planes flying into plumes of volcanic ash.
Nats, which restricted all UK airspace at 1200BST on Thursday, allowed five flights overnight from North America into Belfast, Prestwick and Glasgow airports overnight as gaps in the cloud became apparent.
The Nats update at 0830 said that flights between Northern Ireland and the western isles of Scotland to and from Glasgow and Prestwick would continue until 1900 on Friday, on a case-by-case basis.
North Atlantic traffic to and from Glasgow, Prestwick and Belfast, it added, may also be allowed until then.
A further update is expected at 1330.[/quote]

Nobody said you could see it. It's still there on altitudes quite a bit higher than most clouds.
Yeah it's too high up to see. The there isn't even a cloud in the sky where I am, nice blue skies. If it wasn't for the news I'd probably not notice this at all.
Great, guess dad won't be coming home tomorrow...
Damn i was hoping something astounding...
Last decades in europe were boring as fuck, we need a zombie apocalypse or something already!
