From Mike Socal Volcanes y Ciencia Hoy

Good morning to everyone, this early morning we had a magnitude 4.5 Earthquake followed by downgraded to 4.2 and that in phases mark 5.2 How is it possible? So much they say everything is coming out just as they say if that volcano is seven steps ahead, and the population as always. Last ones to hear about it all... (MIK3)

LA PALMA: ACTIVITY SOARS, MORE LAVA, NEW EMISSION POINTS, EARTHQUAKES INCREASE
2021/10/26 08:28:55 Written by Canarian Weekly National

After 37 days of intense activity, yesterday was one of the most violent days of the eruption in La Palma so far with increased activity as a large volume of magmatic material was emitted that transformed the shape of the cone, opened new emission centres, and caused overflows and rivers of lava. In addition, seismic activity at medium depths has increased in frequency and magnitude, so scientists have warned the population to be prepared to feel earthquakes of intensity VI, which can cause damage to buildings.

"We are at the moment of greatest activity," David Calvo, spokesman for the Canary Islands Volcanological Institute, said last night. In fact, yesterday the highest daily amount of sulphur dioxide was emitted since the beginning of the eruption, a total of 53,600 tons, explained María José Blanco, spokeswoman for the scientific committee in Pevolca, at a press conference.

This data removes the possibility that the end of the eruption is near because the volume of SO2 would have to drop considerably before seeing any signs of it easing up.

MAIN POINTS OF ACTIVITY:
- The volcano emitted 53,600 tons of sulphur dioxide yesterday, the highest daily amount recorded.
- 270 mid-depth earthquakes since Sunday.
- Seismic activity is growing along with the effusive activity of the volcano.

Last night at around 7.15pm, another collapse of part of the main cone opened a new emission point for lava to flow from, on the west flank of the main cone, with a high emission rate. According to Blanco: “After the reconfiguration of the main cone, an enormous amount of lava has been emitted, large flows have been created and the lava is moving through the west area following the path of the 1st flow, and the 4th flow, to the north of the mountain of Todoque.”

This frenzied eruptive activity has also been seen in the intensity of the ‘noise’ caused by the outflow of lava, which has increased considerably since Sunday, with more regular earthquakes of magnitude 4 at mid-depths between 10-15kms. The IGN said that "We clearly have a large lava outlet and this has caused the repositioning of the material at depth, and that is reflected in the tremors."

THIS IS THE ONE MIKE SOCAL COMMENTED ON IN THE LAST BUT ONE COMMENT ADDED.


An Earthquake of 4.2 among the 36 located tonight
The 4.2 magnitude Earthquake was the last to be located this morning, at 7.5 hours in the municipality of Mazo and 36 kilometers deep.

EFE
Santa Cruz of Tenerife
Tuesday, October 26, 2021, 08:20
One of the 36 seismic movements located during the early hours of this Tuesday in La Palma has been of magnitude 4.2 and intensity 4, has reported the National Geographic Institute.

The 4.2 magnitude Earthquake was the last to be located this morning, at 7.5 hours in the municipality of Mazo and 36 kilometers deep.

The first of the series this morning was located at 11:11 am in the municipality of Fuencaliente, with a magnitude of 2.8 and at a depth of 11 kilometers.

Of the 36 earthquakes located during the first hours of Tuesday, 18 they have been of magnitude 3 or higher, and 23 have occurred in the municipality of Fuencaliente and 13 in that of Mazo.

And the depth in which these 36 earthquakes have been located is between 9 and 36 kilometers.

At the moment nothing is just seismic series, but if I'm clear, something wants to go out, it can be now or it can be in years.. but it will come out where it's been wanted. Another thing you find another easier way out, but there will come a time where you break the chair, and get ascended.. (MIK3)

This video is in Spanish but lots comments below I have translated a few.


''Totally agree: if the road is cut and they are isolated, they would send the Navy and the army, late, badly and never and on top of that they will sell it as an achievement ... As for the earthquakes, volcano you're right, I'm an engineer de Minas, I have studied geology and this is going on for a while and it can get worse in a minute, a week or a month or 30 years (it is the same geological time and the same eruption). And it seems that it is not going to stop because of the type of rash. As for a grade 6 Earthquake, I have experienced one in Guatemala and San Salvador of 6.5 and it is very strong, there are landslides, landslides, tall buildings oscillate, high voltage electricity towers, cell phone antennas and more where not it has been built anti-seismic''



''TOTALLY AGREE. EVACUATION ALREADY AND FOR DAYS AGO THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE IT. AND OUR PRESI SANCHINFLAS LIKES THE FALCON MORE THAN THE INTEREST IN FIXING THE ECONOMIC ISSUE. THEY ARE ALL SINVERSES, I HOPE THAT NOTHING HAPPENS BUT BY GOD, GET OUT OF THERE JUST IN CASE. LUCK AND A HUG FOR THE PALM TREES AND IN GENERAL FOR THE CANARY ISLANDS AND ALL THOSE WHO ARE HELPING AND COLLABORATING IN ANY WAY TO MITIGATE ALL THIS SUFFERING TO THESE GOOD PEOPLE.''

''Unfortunately it seems that we have fallen into the absurd tendency that it is bad to alarm, when the human being when he reacts it is precisely because of that sense of alarm. I don't see the problem of simply evacuating those areas as a precaution because of what might happen. That does not happen, well, much better, that something happens those people are safe. Totally agree with you. To alarm is to survive, a sense that it seems that we are losing. I've been following your videos for a while, giving you your reason. Let's hope and I hope so, that in the long run nothing happens, and there is nothing to regret. a cordial greeting''

''They are capable of confining millions of people and continuously alarming with a microorganism that nobody sees and they protect us with masks and vaccines and they are not capable of alarming, evacuating and protecting the people of an island that are being harmed by a volcano that spews a lot of lava to save his life ???''

''Respectable Sir: you are absolutely right, but as you really know the question is economic and organizational, look how to accommodate the migrant pateros they did not hesitate for a second to put them in hotels and give them a payment. The political power is always thinking and at the service of several fundamental questions for them. 1st If they do not get a slice, either in Money that is lost? , image, press, etc. they do not make decisions that can be criticized, for that they always find other culprits, but they never get wet, lest they have to "resign" as little or be judged. 2nd The cumbersome bureaucracy, excess of organisms that nobody puts in order , saturation of misgovernments, disorganization, passing the buck from one to the other. 3rd We all know that citizens only care in front of the camera, after lives are lost more or less it is a matter of numbers, not people. And circumstances will always be to blame.''
