    Since I’m Icelandic I’m going to add a bit of context.

    Nobody knows if it’s going to continue or not, pretty much everything is speculation and experts have a very wide range of opinions.

    Since we had a couple of eruptions in the area recently there’s a good chance it will continue and it’ll have awakened.
