Parts of the island are being evacuted there has been a huge explosion sending lava dow the slope.

The vent has not stopped erupting the noise from it has been constant for the last two days its as if it is breathing and pulsating heartbeat.


IMO this is not looking good at all.

LA PALMA ISLAND ERUPTION.- IMPORTANT EXPLOSIONS AND NEW MOUTH ON THE NORTH SIDE - MORE ASHES, MORE SMOKE, WE SEE THE EXPANSIVE ONDA AND EVERYTHING.- After the explosion, it looks like the expansive wave condenses white water vapor making it visible, giving an insight on the violence of explosions. Ashes rise to 4500 meters, the color for aviation is in red and for those who don't know, we have already reached the VEI2 explosiveness rate, I hope it doesn't go to more, because we get an idea. The tremor is full, saturated the RMS, (the blue area above the Earthquake).

Explosions launch blocks or pieces of stone or pyroclasts of massive sizes, the size of a small car or metrics that are shot at more than 500 m high, is getting serious for the people around here already which is a danger. At the same time the clouds seem to depart with the passage of the expansive wave, the vision is tremendous.
By the opening of the new mouth in the northern part of the crater and a hole has formed where a new lava flow emerges in an area where there were no lava flows yet indicates that the dam continues to spread north as we feared and we were commenting several days ago. This is not good because if a laundry comes out there it will be a new arm or tongue of Lava that would go through areas that had been saved for now, not good news no. I'm sorry.

And also because of this increase in activity, without considering opening the new mouth, it has been alerted through 112 to the areas of Tacande and Tajuya.

🔴 ATTENTION: EruptionLaPalma
📢 Increased explosive phenomenon, with increased range of pyroclastic material and intense ash emission.

➡️ #PEVOLCA orders the lockdown of the population in Tajuya and Tacande de Abajo and the part of Tacande from Above not evacuated.

BREAKING NEWS: 15:55 h The evacuation is decreed in Tajuya and Tacande de Abajo and the part of Tacande from Above not evacuated.
It is very possible that evacuations from the fall of large ballistic pyroclasts, typical of these explosions, especially in the North Zone especially in Chedey and Gamez Mountain.
Continue to increase explosiveness and noise, this is going to more. Don't put hot cloths on them. (Enrique)

24/09/2021-17:30 h Canaria. - LA PALMA ISLAND ERUPTION.- THE LOW TREMOR, NOTICED TO DOWN SOMETHING THE EXPLOSIONS. - THE NEW COLADA OF THE MOUTH JUST OPEN IS ALREADY DOWN BY THE SIDE.- The new lava flow has come to the fissure that opened at the beginning of the eruption and connecting to the header of the flow that had already existed and otter to the main flow. It is expected that it will progress above this and north of the current flow.

Activity seems to give us a break and lift the gas with a very evident tremor drop. At the time of maximum pressure, in addition to explosions, caps and firecrackers and other sonic stampids, there was the noise of the volcano shaped like ′′ jets ′′ or hot gas pressure jets with pyroclastics that has even caused whistles and nutcases, like a Pressure cooker about to explode, until it's broken and opened the new mouth. That's why he gives us a break. Until the next one, because this is going to repeat itself.

The production of air pyroclasts continues, with numerous lapilli in the nearby areas, 30-40 cm thick in 1-2 km and 10-20 cm in 4-5 km in favour of the wind, and the finer ash goes farther and higher, some ash is expected to reach the Gomera, Tenerife and even Gran Canaria in the next few hours.

The volcano intensifies the explosions and a new mouth appears
The detonations have caused the breakage of glass in homes located in the evacuated neighborhoods due to the increase in volcanic activity

The volcano has intensified its activity in the last hours with an increase in the explosiveness of the volcano and with greater detonations that have culminated in the appearance of a new eruptive mouth on the south flank of the volcano. This has generated a new lava flow that is already running down the flank.

The increase in the intensity of volcanic activity has caused the breakage of glass in homes in the evacuated neighborhoods (Tacande de Abajo, Tacande de Arriba and Tajuya) and an increase in ash and the launching of pyroclasts.

In explosive volcanic eruptions, shock waves are generated due to the sudden decompression of the system. These compressed air waves travel through the atmosphere and can travel miles at speeds greater than that of sound.
