A state of emergency has been declared in Iceland after lava from a volcanic eruption damaged key hot water pipes.
Thousands of people in the Reykjanes Peninsula have been urged to limit their hot water and electricity use as the pipes could take days to fix.
There are concerns that other crucial pipelines close to the Svartsengi power station could be affected if the lava flow does not ease soon.
It is the third such eruption on the peninsula since December.
I mean…im glad the country isn’t being destroyed by a volcano but after that headline finding out its because of busted water pipes is a little anticlimactic
It’s Iceland in the dead of winter, it’s -11°C and the heat pipes are severed, it’s an actual emergency.
lol im not saying its not. I get why they declared this an emergency.
Oh well we are sooo sorry it was l anticlimactic for you. I guess more deaths and destruction are deserved for your amusement. You doorknob.
Holy crap…calm your tits, its an obvious shitpost. Try not to go through life being this easily offended and you might find happiness :)
Maybe it’s that I don’t see the humor here. Real people are stuggling in a very cold winter. Disasters aren’t funny. Anticlimactic?? What the actual fuck?
And this is the part where I simply leave because you are just…not the kind of person I enjoy having in my life.
Best of luck to you :)
A volcano also happens to be anti-climatic.
Icelanders just can’t catch a break :(
I wish Iceland would calm the fuck down.
Let’s see… I’ve got earthquakes, birds, snakes and aeroplanes but no volcanic eruptions for my card. Anyone get End Of The World As We Know It bingo from this round?
This is the third eruption in the same place in the past two months, if ‘a volcano erupts near Grindavík, Iceland’ was on your bingo card it should have already been marked. And having ‘any volcano erupts’ on a bingo card would make the game too easy since there are about fifty volcanos erupting at any one time.
How could you not. Still need 2 or 3 in a row to get bingo. Still need nuclear war and neither bidet and trump win or, 3 major hurricane land falls, stock market crash and ocean oil spill.
