[18:33h UTC+1] A rock the size of a house falls down in the NW chimney. This is how the vulcano without name who I call

[7:45h] Rain continued last night with 1.2l/ m2 in Tacande. Water steam rises from the hot lava streams. A kind bizarre spectacle. Felt a strong mbLg 5.0 quake last night, but seismicity in general lower./rf

[07:30h UTC] This morning no reduction in gasification visible. Ash production is enormous, and lava flows out in high quantity from

region westward. By fortune trade winds are blowing it over evacuated territory into the Atlantic ocean. /rf

is more explosive tonight. At this particular moment every 30 second. It formed a new chimney WNW aside the cone./rf

[22:00h] Caldera de Taburiente today. This spring is producing warm mineral and CO2 rich water since decades. Saw this first today after the eruption and it seems a bit more active./ rf

#erupcionlapalma
[05:17h] Loud, obviously phreatomagmatic explosions during the last hour keep the Valle awake. Lot of very liquid lava flowing down on the western flank. VEI was upgraded to 3 yesterday as the volume of ejected pyroclastic material passed 10 mio m3./rf

[11:42h] Hell broke out at the northern flank of the cone. Lava flows out of many chimneys like water. Lava streams did not yet arrive at Callejón de la gata. /rf

@drsanjaygupta
Hope your thread will be read widely! I am living in Spain which was heavily affected by
#COVID__19
but rigorous quarantine measurements, social distancing and hygiene brought down growth rates dramatically. Glad we had not a political fight about this and we followed science.
Consequence of the illegal entry to the volcano of some tourists is a delay in opening parts of the exclusion zone. It is just silly to hike on the cone as long as it is unstable, releases gases and with temperatures of 500°C in some parts only a few cm below surface.
#LaPalma
🤦🏽♂️
[19:40 h LT] Well,
#Tajogaite
unfortunately does not want to rest. If I would have a wish: stop now, we saw enough, sufficient pics, videos noises, suffering and pain for a lifetime on

[03:50h UTC+1] Another night, another shape.

is a bit more mildly, sound is acceptable. Seems there is only one chimney, unfortunately the lava flows now over the very northern part with potential of more destruction. /rf

#ErupcionLaPalma
The volcanic spring in the Caldera de Taburiente
#LaPalma
seems more vivid. I am tasting the water since 30 years. Today it has a bitter taste, never discovered before.
@involcan
might have interest to investigate this.
[08:55h] Still a lot of water in the system. Ash production, seismicity and also SO2 are low. Hope is a fragile plant, but it germinates. /rf

This is a good compilation of what happened so far during the seismic crisis on

I wounder why I am not scared, but this incredible natural force is fascinating and makes us humans shrink to non importance at all.

[08:10h UTC +1] Good morning.
#Tajogaite
still active. Large ash column, less noisy. Earthquake series continuig. Depth not changed. Light mountain wind in

, air quality good./rf
#LaPalma

[10:40h UTC+1] After a full day of huge ash production, the vulcano changed in the last 30 min to obviously from black to white. From time to time an explosion.

Who asked if the lava fields from
#Tajogaite
#CabezaVaca
volcano on
#LaPalma
are still hot? Here is the answer: they are heavily evaporating the rain from this morning.
[11:20h] Game changed again. Now we see very liquid lava flowing down the northern flank mixed with solid rocks. This is not good at all./rf
#LaPalma

[10:45h] Still lot of lava and even big rocks sliding down the northern flank. New territory affected south of roundabout Sombrero. Lava heading direction Cruz Chica./rf

For the one's who don't know what is going on here on
#LaPalma
right now. Compare this foto of the LP-212. Left was what we saw a week ago. Right, 6 days later. And the beast still shows no mercy.
#eruptionlapalma
[18:11h] Parameters good, the beast will rest! The island has changed, but happier times are coming! Times of reconstruction, times when you can hike and fly with friends again. Times when we remember together that we have persevered!
I wish all my followers a Merry Christmas!
[11:08h] There is vertical deformation of about 6cm registred in LP03 Jedey. This station is above the dyke from the upper magma chamber to the volcan. I don't like to see this as it indicates pressure increase in the system.
#LaPalma
#ErupcionenLaPalma
Now the hot lava fields are not only evaporating the water, the rising, very humid air is cooling down and is condensing to cumulus clouds about 200 m above surface.

[07:40h] Another change in the game. New chimneys in the NNE and lava flowing down the northern flank. Seems more viscous and less active, but this is bad as it has the potential to head to La Laguna./rf
