Eruption very much reduced, end near, but lot of ash to deal with

It seems that the eruption in Grímsvötn is quickly winding down.

Plenty of ash to deal with though !

Couple of satellite images, from NASA MODIS sensors, from 23 and 24 May 2011.

23 May 2011. A lot of ash, probably mostly windblown but hard to tell exactly.

24 May 2011. A little better, in terms of actually seeing down to the land surface, and less material being emitted and/or blown.
