Latest update from Involcan
''Update on the seismic swarm in La Palma.
From 20:01 p.m. (Canarian Time) last Saturday, October 17, 2020, to 04:01 p.m. Canary Island, October 19, 2020, the Canary Seismic Network operated by the Volcanological Institute of Canary Islands (INVOLCAN) has detected 28 low-magnitude seismic Events (Mmax= 1,4) on the island of La Palma. Of these 28 seismic Events, 21 were able to be located and their hypocenters fall in the area of the Old Summit Volcano at depths of approximately 5 km.
The figure shows in red the localized seismic Events of the swarm of October 18, in blue the swarm of October 8-10 and in grey the swarm of October 2017, February 2018 and July 2020.
This seismic activity in La Palma represents no danger either for residents of the island, nor for those who visit it and want to enjoy a few days in the Beautiful Island coming soon.
These information notes from INVOLCAN on the recent seismic swarmings recorded in the Volcano Cumbre Vieja (La Palma, Canary Islands) are possible thanks to the LPvolcano projects, which finance the Security Area and Emergencies of the Island Cabildo of La Palma, Canvolcano, Funding the Directorate General for Security and Emergencies of the Government of the Canary Islands, VOLRISKMAC and VOLRISKMAC II, which co-funded the Interreg Cooperation Programme V-A Spain-Portugal MAC (Madeira-Azores-Canary Islands) 2014-2020 Also highlight the logistic support of the city council of Fuencaliente for the development of the activities of INVOLCAN in La Palma where thanks to this Local Corporation, the headquarters of INVOLCAN in La Palma is located in this municipal area.
Further information updates will be provided depending on the evolution of this process and the acquisition of new data on it.''

''This time it's in more somera areas... we are 3-5 km below the Volcano of Cumbre Vieja. (Enrique).
