End of eruption. Pyroclastic activity has ceased but low level seismic events continue.

Data type: Official statement
Groups: Volcanic evaluation

The director of the PEVOLCA plan Julio Perez, stated today that the eruption is over, noting that the tremour has disappeared, seismicity is of low magnitude, and there is no lava or ash being emitted. Pérez clarified, however, that PEVOLCA remains at a red light since the risks associated with gases and the heat of the lava flows still exist. PEVOLCA will maintain surveillance and monitoring throughout the area, and from Monday we will start to plan the relocation of residents (Gobierno de Canarias, 2021).
