    Last time it happened it grounded almost all European air traffic for a week or two. So probably about the same I guess.

      That wasn’t the last time. There was an eruption in 2021 that continued to 2022 in this same peninsula where they’re expecting a new eruption, which was much tamer. Open lava flow but no billowing clouds across the continent.

      It appears that there is still underground lava flow across the peninsula from that eruption, so it is likely a further eruption in the same system.
