Grimsvotn, the volcano in southeast Iceland that began its most significant eruption in one hundred years on Saturday, sent ash as large as 12 miles to the air and grounded airplanes with the country’s biggest airport.

The ash from Grimsvotn - about 120 miles (200 kilometers) east from the capital, Reykjavik - turned the sky black Sunday and rained down on close by structures, cars and fields. Civil safety workers assisted farmers get their animals into shelters and urged citizens to have on masks and remain indoors. No ash fell around the capital.
