Today's data and forecast charts from the UK and Icelandic Met Offices predict a window of clear, ash-free skies over the UK for the next five days.
This morning's forecast is a more positive outlook than yesterday's, which anticipated a 500-mile long high-density ash cloud perilously stretching the distance between Iceland to the west coast of Scotland next Tuesday.
However, today's modelled forecasts reflect a change in the dynamic climate conditions that appear to steer the cloud directly south as it trails harmlessly out across the north Atlantic.
Despite the relaxation of the tolerance levels of aircraft engines operating through the volcanic ash, the charts still track large areas of no-fly zones.
The Eyjafjallajökull volcano eruption is showing no signs of subsiding after yesterday's status report revealed the “powerful explosive eruption” is spewing into the skies at a rate of over 200 tonnes per second.
