Katla Volcano 3 Earthquakes in Seconds

Remember that volcano a couple months back, that one obviously named by.. someone.. from Iceland(Eyjafjallajokull)? It's eruption (or not) shut down huge swaths of European airspace for a couple weeks, freaked out all involved(tourists, the Airline Industry, breathless media types, scientists and economists), and basically made a worldwide nuisance of itself? So you also remember there were some scientists Very Alarmed about the possibility of Eyjafjallajokull's bigger, badder buddy, Katla erupting? 10-times-badder-Katla? Hey, guess what? It's shaking..



Nothing more, yet. This can't even be classified as an earthquake swarm. I'll be watching this. If Katla intensifies, I'll let you know.
