The Met Office has warned there is a sulphur dioxide (SO2) plume over the UK following a volcanic eruption in Iceland.

On Thursday the SO2 was triggered when seismic activity was recorded in Iceland which h is some 800 miles from the UK.

The sulphur dioxide can cause a burning sensation to your eyes, coughing, sore throat or even flu-like symptoms and those who have asthma or bronchitis, the elderly or young children are strongly advised to listen to any warnings.

The So2 plume first entered the UK’s atmosphere at around 4am and air pollution levels are “low” and as it is “high up in the atmosphere” there is “little influence” on the ground level “air quality.”

A Met Office spokesperson told The Sun, “A sulphur dioxide plume which originated from the volcano in Iceland has been crossing the UK high up in the atmosphere and will clear to the southeast in the coming hours.

“Impacts have been low from this sulphur dioxide, as it is high in the atmosphere and is having little influence on ground-level air quality. Small concentrations at surface level mean that the air pollution levels remain low.

“Air pollution is currently Low, and expected to remain that way for the whole of the UK today.

“We’re continuing to monitor any sulphur dioxide release originating from Iceland, with current forecasts suggesting little influence on UK surface air pollution in the coming days.”
