Update courtesy of Involcan.

Informative update on Earthquake-volcanic activity in the Volcano Vieja Summit (La Palma, Canary Islands): 11 million cubic meters of magma have already been injected.
The Canary Geodetic Network, operated by the Volcanological Institute of Canary Islands (INVOLCAN), has recorded significant deformation of the volcanic land in recent days.
The figure shows horizontal (red arrows) and vertical (black arrows) displacement in some of the GNSS stations that are part of the net. This warp pattern can be interpreted as the effect of pressurizing a small magmatic reservoir, with a volume of approximately 11 million cubic meters, located inside the Old Summit in the same area where most are being located from the earthquakes of the recent swarm, and at a depth of approximately 6-7 km.
This observation confirms that the source of this swarm, which began last Saturday September 11, 2021, has a magmatic origin and is related to the intrusion of a small volume of magma inside the Volcano of Old Summit.
INVOLCAN will continue to be updated on the evolution of this new seismic swarm at the Volcano Summit. Remembering that it can't be ruled out to intensify the seismicity felt in the coming days, depending on the evolution of activity.
The current situation of the volcanic traffic light is in AMARILLO for the municipalities of El Paso, Los Llanos de Aridane, Mazo and Fuencaliente de la Palma; therefore, keep an eye on the information provided by the relevant Civil Protection authorities.

ENJOY SISM-VOLCANIC: 3.1 BROKEN SISM AND THE ENJOY REIGNS HIS SISMICITY AND THE MAGMA HIS MOVEMENT. 16/09/20121-15:30 h - It is said that a volcano is pressurizing when it has this behavior, and what it does is breaking the rock so that the magma passes and can keep climbing to seek a way out, today especially in the seismogram, then after 2.8 and slightly 3.1, about 7-8 km seismicity has repounded considerably after a quieter morning and evening indicating that this is moving.
In addition to this fourth embite, since this swarm has begun, the starting point today is 10 cm vertical deformation and an estimated 11 million m3 magma that has intruded under the island of La Palma .. (Imagine 11 Santiago Bernabeu Stadiums full of lava)... It's a good amount and it keeps coming in, so we'll see how much it builds up or goes up from lower levels. (Enrique)

Another Earthquake of 3.0 although the depth doesn't block me much, as it would indicate more magma entry from below and therefore a reactivation of the hitherest swarm in a few days... (Enrique)

Courtesy of Enrique the quakes are getting shallower.

And another tremor of 3.1 that has left an important mark on the Earthquake less than half an hour ago, and relatively somero.. just 6 km, although at first he was only 3 km away (Enrique ))
