   A new fissure has opened up just 50-100 m from the houses along the northern edge of Grindavík.

   In the map, defensive walls are marked in yellow. The extent of the lava flow is shown in black. The lava flow has been constrained to a large extent by the east-west wall.

   One of the unoccupied houses has fallen prey to the lava. We can see the new lava flow, which is now encroaching into the first row of houses in north Grindavík, in the webcam screen-capture below.
