Followed by a 1.9 South East of El Hierro on land.

Interesting times at the moment I have not seen so much movement around the islands in a long time.

I did not realise that Volcano Cumbre Vieja covers two thirds of the Island.

''The ridge of the Cumbre Vieja trends in an approximate north-south direction and covers the southern two-thirds of the island. Several volcanic craters are located on the summit ridge and flanks.''
