Confirmation of the opening of a new mouth.

Buenos días Canarias! Hoy amanece en #LaPalma con la confirmación de una nueva boca, paralela a la principal, a unos 400 metros más al norte. Así ha comenzado hoy

This is how they recorded, just an hour ago, the teams of
@involcan
how the lava advances in #LaPalma. The expulsion from the volcano continues and moves more fluidly towards the coast

Live photo just taken on my TV.

Its constantly changing colour from black to white to grey smoke then no smoke and just the fountains spewing out super hot magma.

I do not think this eruption from this vent is following any previous pattern of eruptions its changes daily and even by the hour.

INCREDIBLE !! ... Three scientists risk their lives on the La Palma Volcano. An explosion of the main cone surprises 3 Involcan technicians, a few meters away, forced to protect themselves from the rain of pyroclasts and lapilli. The dramatic moment was recorded by one of them. #volcanlapalma #volcan #volcanocumbrevieja #VolcandeLaPalma #involcan # scientistsvolcano # explosionsvolcano #volcano danger #pyroclast rain

This one comment in reply to the above video

''Tremendous ′′ but, a but ′′ What does he do in shorts? The first thing is to protect you long sleeve, long pants and natural fibers (greater fire resistance).. I am not a scientist nor I reach nor pretend is mountain law, the first thing you learn when you walk, I predict protecting you''

I personally totally agree with this and I am thinking these are not trained scientists geologists etc etc because they would not be dressed like that doing such an important job and as they should be protecting the islanders do not they seem not to understand they firstly need to protect themselves and it makes me even more worried for the islanders now.

Surely they should have protective fire suits on and oxygen masks I really am gobsmacked after watching the video.

I know after have lived in the Canary islands for many years their way of life is so different and laid back but come on I think IGN are way out of their depth and the Spanish government should now start urgently to bring to L Palma specialists from Hawaii Iceland and Italy.

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS MY OWN PERSONAL OPINION AND NOT THE OPINION OF FUERTEVENTURA CLICK.

I have never in my life seen anythinglike what I am watching live now from the eruption .It's like four white legs with smoke flowing upwards and a black mass in the middle.

It really does look like a space rocket or one of the fab ice lollies.

Photo attached.

The La Palma volcano has two new mouths
Scientists predict that the new cast will eventually join the main cast


The La Palma volcano continues to maintain the same intensity of previous days and last morning two new mouths appeared, separated about 15 meters from each other, which are to the northwest of the main cone and below in levels.

The technical director of Pevolca, Miguel Ángel Morcuende , has informed in a press conference that from 02.00 hours these two mouths are emitting effusive lavas that advance taking advantage of a favorable topography, seeking the union towards the trace of the original wash.


Miguel Ángel Morcuende explained that, at the beginning, this new casting moves about 450 meters apart from the original casting, but looking for the unit downstream. At around 10 a.m., the LP-212 highway was passed and it continues to evolve towards lower levels.

The technical director of Pevolca pointed out that scientists are already monitoring and supervising this new runoff and are close to having a mathematical model of the probability of its follow-up.
