I saw the plume rise to at least 20.000' tonight at 20:00! and it was blown southwards from the volcano. There seems to be enough power left in the crater. Our beloved geologists are predicting less eruption activity soon... well what do they know, a farmer told them when the previous eruption started in the same mountain...

Winds are expected to change to W & NW tomorrow and for the next 24 hrs in Iceland. I guess you will be getting more ash over to the mainland from us over the next day or two, unfortunately.

Wikipedia never lies about volcanic ash
