What has happened to the subglacial volcano in Iceland? Up to last week it
was on the news every day, threatening large scale flooding. Is it still
performing? Is the water still there or has it re-frozen? Was there any
flood?

Dear Wendy,
The eruption ended on October 13. The media usually doesn't cover when
eruptions stop. They basic info is presented in What's Erupting Now.
The water is still in the caldera and under the ice. No flood as of October
18 but it is still possible.
