If this thing messes with our recent spree of amazing weather I will not be happy.

Goddam Iceland.

Now they steal our sunshine!

Let's just nuke them and be done with it.

Ilkka Kanerva for instance?

Iceland has had a lot to endure the last years, and now many of them can't send their children to school and have to protect their children from snowing ash. Experts ask them to basically dress children with protective suits and masks, not many will have that available, or be able to buy it anytime soon.

Just here in Norway, even emergency flights are cancelled, meaning you will be driven in an ambulance to wherever you have to go in an emergency. We hardly have an infrastructure good enough to handle even our daily commuting (strange, I know), so this is a disaster waiting to happen.

Cut off your hand? Get ready for a 460km roadtrip. Short translation: Many patients are taken by air from Bergen to Oslo for emergency treatments, now they have to drive a route that's 460 km long and funny enough also dependant on weather (good thing this did not happen during winter).

being stuck at heathrow is a nightmare. It happened to me when the BA people went on strike. I had to stay the night there before I could get a hotel then was stuck in London for 3 days. I feel sorry for anyone who has to do that.......i doubt they get re-embersed by the airlines since it isnt their fault so you get SOL and stuck in London paying for a hotel + food.


I know that at least the Norwegian companies are reimbursing the passengers. They also cover any hotel-costs as a result of the cancellations. Personally I think its a little too nice to reimburse the hotel costs. As you say, its not their fault, so they should not be held responsible.

Prepare for the might of nature and taking the boat to America

It will spread to USA as well if it goes on for a longer period of time.


To the USA? Where did you get this informaton? It just doesn't sound likely as the winds across the Atlantic pretty much always are westerly.

LOLZ @ Iceland stood over us spewing danger-gas.

It's over me too, but the sky is blue, apparently it's too high up in the atmosphere to see, but of course affects high altitude planes.

The sky is blue here as well, in southern Sweden and I think the clouds are just regular clouds and not ash. It's also very sunny, and it has been so all day, but it's not really warm because of the cold winds

It isn't supposed the sky to just go gray or black. It's that fine volcanic ash (very small particles) that can hurt airplane's engine. Concentration is largely reduced with the distance it travels. Hope it gets dispersed soon and flight patterns can get back to normal.

Darn, I was kinda hoping for big, grey clouds of ash. Had prepared this little act where I run around screaming that the world is at an end.

Noticeable smell of ash in Northern Scotland, a film of it covered our car this morning. Probably won't get back down to the mainland for a few days now...

Last time the problems persisted for 2 years...

Though flights to Europe are still grounded, trans-Atlantic flights are OK, so seems Ferries are doing their best business ever
A worrying lack of anvils

I work for one of european airlines, all our flights until tomorrow 12:00 GMT has been cancelled, and we're told to be ready to resume duties after this time. Until then it's "Volcano Days Off" for us...

I don't even want to think about what happens if this continues for years oO...

Strange, I just heard an airplane here. I guess not all planes are forbidden to fly in Sweden yet? Or maybe it's just international flights that are cancelled?
Nachos?
