Earthquakes are still continuing La Palma and the deepest seem to be getting stronger.

Post-eruptive Activity Old Summit, #LaPalma (11-01-2022 09:00 UTC)

➡ Since the last announcement (7th day at 9:00 UTC), 30 earthquakes have been located on the island of La Palma. The Earthquake on Day 9 at 16:29, at 35 km deep and magnitude 2.6 mbLg, has been felt by the population, with intensity II (EMS98), in the epicentral area. This latest Earthquake is the highest magnitude of the period considered. The magnitude is between 1.0 and 2.6 (mbLg).

➡ The location of hippocentres continues under the central area of Cumbre Vieja in the same areas as in previous days. 19 earthquakes have been located at a depth between 7 and 16 km, 9 at a depth less than 5 km and 2 at a depth of 35 km.

➡The network of permanent GNSS stations of the island does not show significant deformations that can be associated with volcanic activity.

🌋 The IGN continues its presence on the island, where the CAVE (Center of Attention and Eruption Surveillance) has been established, maintaining, denensifying and improving the surveillance network.

12/01/2020 - 20:00h Canary Islands. - LA PALMA VOLCANO STILL STOPS AND NO EFUSIVE ACTIVITY SINCE ALMOST A MONTH AGO. LIFE HAS TO FOLLOW- The volcanic traffic light continues in Red, in practice we are in a yellow-orange, having finished the eruption, but with the emergency of the Red, as we have to make sure that it will not restart and associated dangers good bye. We're in the Post-eruptive phase and you have to look at everything closely.
This cycle of activity seems to have passed and despite a small seismic recounts or activity these recent days shows no sign that it could indicate that it wants to return to the load, as the earthquakes are increasingly less and less magnitude and they are more scattered and I don't know accumulate in concrete points, it does not make swamp, which indicates that it continues to stop.

The cone follows its cooling process, with many cracks and continues to smoke and dump gas through many areas. Your mouths lined according to the eruptive dique will certainly be your most distinctive morphological feature, as well as the lava mouths that opened in the middle of the inhabited areas and even under the houses.

The Delta remains hot, the vapor continues to go out in some places, the heat and the interaction of the lava that continues to cool with the ocean water is what generates it.

On the other hand for many fissures and the ovens on the lava tubes continue to release gas, forming eflorescents and crystals of several minerals and reminding us that recently the magmatic material came down for them, windows inside some co Nuctions that are still very hot and will take time to cool down months, even years in areas of the thicker coladas.

GPS stabilize, as well as other parameters that are slowly returning to previous levels, which they have not yet done, especially in volcanic gases, seismicity that continues to drop and ground temperature that continues to cool.

And while, trying to recover normality, today I stay with this video of the Laguna Firefighters Park, which was about to be devoured by a laundry, but in the end I stay a few meters from the perimeter of it. The nearby school, instead if it was affected. They tell us the plans for that area to reset communications both over the laundry and by roads further north, which could be simpler, both options are being narrowed.

Much encouragement to all Palmeros. (Enrique)

PS: I've been a few months of hard work and take time to put the posts is not easy at all, so these days I have to catch up on several things and I will only comment the most resemble, with post in the days that I have time or because the current as In the morning, I'm request it for the occurrence of an event, (an Earthquake for example). Greetings and much encouragement.

I have seen a question asked on the internet whats been happening with El Hierro since midnight . Will post if I find an explanation.

OT but this shows how far waves can travel after an eruption.

US and Japan on alert because of the waves from the recent Tonga Eruption .

Think I have found the answer to the El Hierro graphs.

''Today, Saturday January 15, 2022, the Canary Seismic Network, operated by the INVOLCAN, has recorded the seismic waves produced by the exceptional Hunga Tonga submarine volcano explosion, located in the Kingdom of Tonga, in the Pacific Ocean. This powerful explosion, in addition to generating seismic waves of energy equivalent to a 5.8 magnitude Earthquake (according to the USGS), also produced a tsunami that has affected nearby islands, as well as atmospheric waves of gravity that have been captured given by several satellites.
This volcano is in the collision zone between the Pacific tectonic plate and the Indoaustralian plate and consists of an Andesitic type underwater boiler. In recent years this same volcano has already produced other eruptions, specifically in 2009 and 2014-15. The current eruption began last December 20, 2021, and today's explosion generated an eruptive column that has possibly exceeded 25 km high. The noise of this eruption, which could have reached a 5 Volcanic Explosiveness Index (VEI) has been heard even in New Zealand, more than 1500 km from the volcano.''
