Etna (Sicily, Italy): A 4th paroxysm from the New SE crater has occurred in rapid succession to the previous eruptions during the past 2 days. It will be interesting to see how long Etna will keep up this busy pace.

 

White Island (New Zealand): Tremor remains continuous and has increased. Earthquakes also continue, including a 2.2 event at 6 km depth 5 km south of the island earlier today.
