Die vulkaniese uitbarsting het begin ná seismiese aktiwiteit naby die vulkaan. Magma het opgestoot en ’n kraak tussen 700 en 1000 m lank naby Sundhnúkur oopgemaak.
Volgens Ysland se Met-kantoor is die grootste gevaar nou gas en veldbrande. Hulle sê die uitbarsting was gering en geen skade is aan infrastruktuur aangerig nie.
