PEVOLCA today have confirmed the death of a 72-year-old man in the exclusion zone in the El Corazoncillo neighbourhood in the municipality of El Paso. The cause of death as well as the man’s identity is currently unknown, however the cause of death is currently...
The two lava flows feeding the lava delta, flows 1 and 2, have now combined both in the sea forming a single large lava delta, and also on land too close to the cliffs. Other than these flows, flow number 9 which is further south...
Today, a cluster of 11 earthquakes at 9-14 km were recorded in the south of La Palma close to the Cumbre Vieja ridge, starting at 3:18 am local time. The largest event so far was a mbLg 1.5 earthquake and 11 km depth. This new...
The size of the lava delta is increasing with the arrival of flow number 2 at the coast yesterday, which has increased the total area affected by lava flows by more than 10 hectares, with the total area affected now standing at 998 hectares. The...
The lava flow immediately south of the current lava delta, flow number 2, has advanced and reached the coast at Playa de Los Guirres. The front of the lava flow is cascading down the cliffs onto the beach below, although this lava is yet to...
In terms of lava flows, the eruption continues to be stable, with no new ground being affected by the current active flows, which occupy existing tubes and channels in the centre of the flow field. Flow number 11 to the south of the flow field,...
The lava flows generated by the increase in activity on the 6th continue to advance south of the effusive focus to the west, although currently they largely flow over past flows in the centre of the lava flow field, with only occasional overflows of the...
There has been minimal evolution in the last few days with regards to the visible eruptive activity and the progress of the lava flows. The furthest south flow, number 11, is almost inactive, although an increased contribution of lava was seen affecting flow number 3...
The eruption continues to show variable strombolian activity, with multiple more explosive vents in the main cone, and a more effusive lava emission vent on the NW flanks of the main cone. The lava flows continue to flow across existing flows in the centre and...
Many active lava flows persist to the south of the lava flow field with a variable contribution from the main cone, although almost all of the flows are contained within previous lava channels or tubes, with only small local overflows of lava. The extent of...
