Ash from the eruption plume tracing the particle paths in a low north of Iceland

Interesting to see on the satellite image below how the ash from the eruption plume from Eyjafjallajökull traces the streamlines in the low north of Iceland.

The level of particulate mattter (PM) was quite high in Vik yesterday, about 430 micro-g per cubic meter (micro-g/m3), averaged over the day (the health limit is 50 in the same units).

Looks like Vik will have high levels again today!
