Strombolian activity in Etna's Voragine this night
Strombolian activity in Etna's Voragine this night
Ash emission from the New SE crater this morning
With the seismic stations and some of the webcams (in particular, the ones at Belvedere) being unavailable for the time being (they were overrun by lava flows from Friday's paroxysm), it is getting more difficult to have live data from Etna.
However, the Bocca Nuova and several other webcams are still functional and observers on GeoForum collected some image that show that strombolian activity from Voragine continued this night, and also ash eruptions from the New SE crater were seen this morning. This could be a precursor of a new paroxysm.
Strombolian activity at the Voragine continued during the night and seems quite intense. You can check the current activity on our Webcam Tool.
