The felt earthquakes are at shallower depths now.

Just noticed since 02:30 this morning none of the earthquakes have been in the deeper depths 30km plus.

Update courtesy of Enrique last night.

22:15 21/10/2021 h Canary Islands.- LA PALMA ISLAND ERUPTION.- MAPS OF THE COLADES - NEW COLADES THREATENING THE LAGUNA.- This is horrible, my post has been deleted already Twice and the truth is that the first thing is what happens in the Location of the Laguna. The volcano follows its own, it won't stop shortly, the tremor goes up a bit and the deformation too, has been inflated slightly.

The 10 B flow (the one that swallowed the gas station) has advanced 300 m and the 10 C flow (which is next to the school and firefighters) has advanced by 400 m and merged into a and have turned south as if the urban helmet dams them to the ground a higher peel and now almost all the lavic material of both flows pushes and goes towards the mountain of the Laguna, west and south, though I record that they keep squeezing something north and could overflow in the next few hours, either in the school area (option1) or below (option 2), hopefully they don't pass and don't overflow or do little.

But there are two problems, as the contribution continues for more than 3 days, eventually will overflow and surround the mountain of the Lagoon in the North. The reason is that there are two more active laundry rimming the north edge:

The first is from the 10 D flow that broke down about 4 days ago in the northern area of the polygon and has gone down the north edge leaving a couple of kipukas or islands of land untouched by the laundry on its way down and now is 400 m above school, 1-2 days away if it goes fast. will arrive, unless the lava contribution is cut off.

The second is the 10 E flow that started its path in the upper part of the polygon, covered an area and climbed over the old laundry, re-exiting the north of the polygone in the arm at 200 m above the road and it broke down yesterday morning in the same area and it goes down about 400 m behind the 10 D flow and border the north of it.

And this is horrible, the bad news is that either the 10 C flow, as when the 10 D or E arrives in the school area, in principle the forecast is that it will overflow in that area if it is cut off the lava supply of these three channels and will drop in 24-72 h-96 h by the north of the Lagoon Locality, and would also surround north of the LAGuna Mountain 5-6 days, setting a course towards the south side of San Borondon, the Marina and the Tazacorte Football field and the cemetery.

And while in the area south of the Laguna, another flow has reactivated, causing the 10 B to lose strength and very hot and fluent material that progresses very quickly, reactivating the 10 A and moving forward 600 m from yesterday and moving along the north edge of the field of the oldest or 9 C flow in the area next to the SPAR supermarket.

The result of all this is that flow 10 A, with 10 B and 10 C will converge on the same point at the east base of the Mountain of the Lagoon and will form a huge reservoir that when Filled, jumped or climbed over 9 C and down between 9 C and 9 A into the ocean between the mountain of Todoque south and the lagoon to the north.

And don't believe there are two more things... first in the highest area of the polygon is forming another tongue, the 10 F, which was burning a massive transformer with a lot of smoke today. Second thing, in the area above the volcano there is an overflow that could give a new flow that would go further north still in unaffected areas that I have called flow 11 so far and we will see what result. What a scenario.

I'm done with the earthquakes, it's racking up a lot of energy that hasn't released, and possibly dropping it, we've passed the period of 36 h... so the next highs are around 03:30 h IGN, 04:30 h Canary Islands and 05:30 h peninsula. And then 12 h 25 min later at 15:55 h IGN, 16:55 h Canary Islands and 17:55 h peninsula.

More tomorrow... and hopefully better. Cheer up to all Palmeros. Hopefully I'm wrong and it stops. (Enrique)

Surely it's another pulse in the magma's way, deformation will confirm it to us tomorrow if it rewires like today or the wind of that day in the area or anyone knows, there are many possibilities, but the first is the most plausible. The truth is that in the previous post 528 I tell the magma comes to pulses for waves that are released in depth with those characteristic spasmodic tremor pieces. (Enrique)

23:56, strong in Mazo.
Although I haven't really stopped feeling vibrations since 9 pm, all the time, nonstop.
