2021 islands canary volcanic activity

Volcanic activity in Canary Islands 2021
Latest update courtesy of Enrique.

''13/10/2021 h Canary Islands.- LA PALMA ISLAND ERUPTION.- 7 ACTIVE AREAS IN THE NORTH TAILS - TEMBLOR OF 4.4 AND THE BRAVIEST VOLCANO AND ASHES MORE FINE TO HAVE MORE ENERGY.- Just finished the map with available information on the lava flow coming out of the 4 mouths of the volcano coming down the northernmost ramales and moving through the north side of the lava field... This is bleak. look at the blue arrows that mark the approximate route of the flow. The most advanced are the 9 C flow, followed by the 9 B that has been reactivated, then laterally in the 9 D and 9 E area, the latter approaches the soccer field.

A lot of eye to flow 10 (really two) at the top of the polygon, could be a problem in the next few days, I was warning yesterday as it has formed by an overflow of the main channel and could gain a lot of strength in the next few hours and days. Watch this morning's IGME video talk about what I tell you... very disturbing.

SESMIC ENERGY.

As far as seismic energy is concerned, if you saw yesterday's forecast, green arrows forecast the Earthquake this morning, but it had marked two yellow as 12 h after that event, they start to repeat another, so this would be the third yellow arrow, and it could also be predictable in the future. This means, if you also comply with the yellow arrows, that we will have another 4 + movement in about 12 h counting from the latter... in the early morning around 03:00 h IGN, 04:00 h Canary Islands, 05 :: 00 h peninsula. And it seems to me that the swarm doesn't loosen, he was just taking a break and, keep pressurizing, the mother who gave birth to him.....

PHOTO ASH: The picadora is underway and something I'm clear, that lightning clearly indicates, ash and pyroclasts are now much thinner, indicating a more energetic process in the eruptive column of the volcano, now VEI2 but it puts us in path of VEI3 volcanian eruption, which is not good news. Don't miss the photo with the tasting, the top with thinner material.

Several colours are also observed, which relate to variation in chemical and mineralogical composition of pyroclasts and fallen ash. We carry between 8 and 9 million cubic meters just of ash that the UME and volunteers remove from roofs where there's more.

And what a job to remove all those ashes, what a job.... I leave you with a video.

And I'm not surprised seeing the ash columns climbing from the two active mouths, like big fireplaces, where by the way it seems that he wants to open another mouth up above where white vapor comes from and there's a third smaller between the two. So 4 gas points and four lava.. we're done.

TREMOR AND GASES:

At this point in the movie, if you haven't noticed, the gases and shredding is rising, so the volcano makes more noise.. and that is measured by the tremor, which of course, is also uploading logically (Enrique)

This graphic looks better what I say about the patterns every 36 h, it's really amazing, it doesn't cease to amaze me and I've seen it before at the Kilauea in 2018 and the last of the Bardarbunga that did the same ..
This means, if you also comply with the yellow arrows, that we will have another 4 + movement in about 12 h counting from the latter... in the early morning around 03:00 h IGN, 04:00 h Canary Islands, 05 :: 00 h peninsula.

The eruption continues at high levels with no significant changes, and no end in sight.
At the vent, mild to moderate lava fountains generating ash columns rising to approx. 3000 m altitude, and lava flow emissions continue. The lava flows continue to expand the flow field at various fronts, in particular along the northern margins, where they slowly approach La Laguna.
Volcanic tremor remains high, suggesting that magma discharge rates remain high. According to the latest figures, the maximum width of the main lava flow is now 1,770 meters. 1,408 buildings have been destroyed or damaged, and approx. 6,400 people have been displaced. Most of them found temporary homes with friends or relatives, while a few hundred are accommodated in the Princess hotel in Fuencaliente.
Sulfur dioxide emissions, another indicator of magma supply rate (as the gas is released from fresh magma early on), is very high, estimated in the order of 17,000 tons per day.

La Palma volcano eruption update: strongest-so-far quake hits at magnitude 4.4

Location of this afternoon's 4.4 quake on La Palma
Location of this afternoon's 4.4 quake on La Palma
The strongest so far Earthquake, at magnitude 4.4, hit the island this afternoon at 3.33 p.m. about 20 minutes ago. Its location was at approx. 36 km depth under the central part of Cumbre Vieja volcano.
The tremor was widely felt on the island. Other than this, seismic activity has remained at similar levels as yesterday. During the past 24 hours, there were 19 quakes between 3.0 and 4.0, and 47 quakes between 2.0 and 3.0. Smaller quakes - certainly there are hundreds of such - can currently not be detected as they are hidden in the strong volcanic tremor.

''13/10/2021 h Canary Islands.- PALM ISLAND ERUPTION.- MISSING INFORMATIONS - INCREASE GASES, ASHES AND MAGMA EMISSION.- HOW MUCH DOES THE CONE MEASURE? WHERE ARE THE COLADAS HOW LAST?..- I find it amazing, embarrassing and completely reckless that there is no captain in charge of giving information to the media, TV and press are more lost than a sardine in the peaceful ocean, giving outdated reports from 2 ago days, and showing maps from 4 ago as if they were from yesterday. This is third world, and of course people don't know what to stick to or what to do.
I put a different view of this volcanic process with my experience and knowledge on the subject, but it doesn't seem right for official media to be so parks when it comes to giving information. Repetitive Pevolca gatherings with microdata such as GPS, outdated with 24 h delay and data where not knowing, we do not know the height of the volcanic cone right now. (to eye 100-140 m) but an official measurement would be nice.

Coladas Norte I'm watching since yesterday, getting ready to kill, but no one takes action until someone realizes that the flow comes to an area that has not been evacuated yet and makes them leave in 15 minutes... no I think it's welcome, not respectful, or anything. This is hilarious.

EDITED: New evacuation with 3 hours to pick things up in the wake of a flow... that's enough.

Security forces, EMU, Civil Guard, town hall and Cabildo workers are getting their skin all over the world, while IGN people are merely covering the file and if they profit anything (like a post) better then it turns out they knew the volcano was going to erupt a week before opening and did nothing.
This IGN posture, the only thing that generates is uncertainty in all the people and this lack of security translates into fear, so bulos and rumors run like gunpowder, and if you put a map of deformations without leaking mistakes, the international press calls for a catastrophe of biblical dimensions and then there are sites like this alarmists. Take care of this a bit, fill up that you are in charge of Volcanic Surveillance since 2004 (and don't care).

The volcano continues to activate, every passing day is bigger, makes more magma and more gas but on IGN they shut up... and tell me it's normal... fill if you even have supersonic rays and waves that are seen in the clouds ... There's a piece of seismic-volcanic swarm under the island and they nab it as if it weren't important and it's one of the bombs that gives pressure and marches the magma of the eruption to the surface.. with earthquakes of 4.4 and climbing if no one remedies it... which by the way you can't. and of course they don't predict its duration, Involcan was the only one and pulled the only thing you could, statistic 55 days.. we've been 25. I can say from here that at least it will be 2-3 weeks....

Many will not understand this post, but it is that the volcano is taking a pile of SO2 gas and more.. that spread across the planet and the ash columns, are tremendous, today will be good lightning if the chopping of the ash and unfortunately if the magma keeps turning more and more acidic, clearer, with more gas and more powerful, we will enter the next thing of the volcano... the possibility of a eruptive cloud collapse than a burning or pyroclastic cloud And I don't want to see her or suffer. Could be very dangerous.

Lack of zeal, fearlessness, lack of experience or worse, the most utter ignorance of not knowing what they did by not putting the light on Orange before the eruption or putting the light on RED two hours after the eruption began, I headline all orders in the first two hours to all law enforcement, workers and inhabitants, good thing nothing happened, but it could have happened.

And so notice, the volcano is about to cross the line from an explosive phase to a dangerous volcanian phase, where collapses could occur in the eruptive column of ash that could in turn lead to a lethal fiery cloud (cloud or cloud) pyroclastic flow) able to kill whoever catches as it would go to 700°C. I hope they read me and take action. Alarmist... not... foreseeing. Warned they are, let them later say that nature is unpredictable. I already warned you.

PS: I leave you a few previous follow ups... 2011 El Hierro... this is coming long..

And like not, La Palma and the first swarm with the post from years ago... when it all began. https://foro.tiempo.com/seguimiento-de-la-situacion...
