Iceland Quake SwarmIceland is on the border between the Eurasian Plate and the N America Plate, so when the New Madrid Rupture starts tugging on the N American Plate to pull in different directions, Iceland gets to trembling. Insider Paper reported 85 quakes within an hour on November 10 and Volcano Discovery reported that Iceland had 1035 quakes of magnitudes up to 4.6: within a 24 hour period. It is the Mainland Portion which reaches up to Iceland and then down to the Azores that is being tugged. Can you imagine trying to have soup for lunch?

- Iceland Volcano - live: Shock Images Show Ground Splitting as Eruption Fears Grow
November 14, 2023
https://www.aol.com/iceland-earthquakes-live-volcano-eruption - Shock images show roads split apart near Grindavik in Iceland as the country braced for a volcanic eruption following a series of earthquakes and evidence of magma spreading underground. The country is susceptible to earthquakes because it sits on a tectonic plate boundary that continually splits apart, pushing North America and Eurasia away from each other along the line of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
ZetaTalk Comment 11/14/2023: It is clear from geological evidence that the split from Iceland to the Azores has happened before. The scripted drama of the Pangea breakup has Eurasia spreading while the Pacific compresses, which makes this split inevitable. The Iceland volcanoes are not super volcanoes, but like all volcanoes require residents to evacuate temporarily. This spate of quakes and crevasses is a result of the pulling apart of the N American Continent - the New Madrid Rupture.
