The tremor today is insane and the earthquakes are non stop some shallower depths 8km and 9km.

These earthquakes happened within the last hour.

From Volcanes y Ciencia Hoy

en el puerto de Tazacorte sentimos una explosión muy fuerte quizás porque resuena en el barranco de las angustias y lo achacan a un derrumbamiento en el acantilado de Tijarafe, detrás del antiguo muelle pesquero del Puerto


in the harbor of Tazacorte we feel a very strong explosion perhaps because it resonates in the ravine of distress and they blame it to a collapse on the cliff of Tijarafe, behind the ancient fishing pier of the Port

Very active at the moment with new vents opening up.

20:30 24/10/2021 hr Canary Islands.- PALM ISLAND ERUPTION.- WE HAVE LONG PERIOD SISMS, A LOT OF NOISE IN THE 1-0.5 HZ FREQUENCE OF LAVA AND A LOT OF SISMICITY. A MAGMATIC PULSE IS COMING.- I explain in clear words, a lot of magma comes, we have strong long-term earthquakes with a long-term coated or ′′ LPs ′′ indicating a strong depressurization of magmatic fluids. Last ones at 17:15 h and another one at 18:34 h. If it were little magma noise at 1-0.5 Hz at the bottom of the magma is much more intense, it moves more magma. This morning it said that something had happened down after the spasmodic tremor and that after it there was a lot of seismicity, and that the pressure was rising, and this is confirmed with the tremor that goes up, opening new mouths and I guess tomorrow we will have confirmation of a deformation elevating sensors by several centimeters due to this pressure increase.

We hadn't seen these earthquakes because of the noise of the tremor, but with this magnitude I hadn't saw them in the Canary Islands, and it surprises me. This only indicates that things in a few hours and before a couple of days will get uglier, as far as the amount of magma issued, with more pyroclasts, more lavas and if the pressure is not relieved by the mouths existing eruptives, will dismantle the cone with new collapses and open new mouths, and eye that could be in areas at 500 m or even more of the current pyroclast cone, both towards the SSE and the NNW.

Of course if the eruption suddenly stops, we are fixed, would open after a short time and look for exit. The first serious candidate zone would be near the current eruptive point, but it is not dismissable that it opened again as in 1949 just in the vertical of all this seismicity, that is, up at the Summit, in the Hoyo black and Nambroque area after a few days.

Thanks to all the people who transmit to me what they feel, there has been a squeak in some places since 20:04 Canary time, which could be a volcanic glissando, seen on EGOM perfectly and which occurs when a fluid vibrates and makes an audible noise, like a pressure water pipe when it makes noise in a valve or key in the form of a whistle. It indicates magma passage through a very narrow point to a lot of pressure and that the pipes are going to full. The spectrum appears as horizontal lines, which are seen perfectly from 8 pm to 26 pm and 34 hz per fluid.

Therefore we have typically pre-eruptive signals that indicate that there is magma on the way to the surface, hopefully it will come out at the same point opening new mouths, if the pressure goes up much, could open the other side of the island in a few days, the deformation and seismicity will be crucial now, and it would not be the first time, already did it in 1949, but that time it stopped for 18 days, then open for Hole black, Nambroque and a little later for the Llano del Bank, giving the lava flows and delta next to the current ones.
