Update 26/11 – 11:30
 Joke reports that her friend, the La Restinga human webcam, has growing fear that a new evacuation is not far away as the stain is very visible from the village this morning (Ian reported the same in his 09:52 update). She thinks that if the wind eventually changes, La Restinga might be in the center of the storm again.

Update 26/11 – 11:28
 - The volcanic earthquakes have picked up their daily work again. Since 09:21 this morning 4 M+1.5 earthquakes have been listed by IGN, the strongest one being a M 2.7 earthquake NW of Frontera

steam and rocks now on webcam.

May not be rocks just could be  steam or gasses coming to the surface?

Translated,

Good afternoon. According to the PEVOLCA "has become to normal". To the normality of a volcanic eruption in progress. Enjoy the images but careful residents of La Restinga. Although it may sound to ca... Please stay tuned to any official releases. (Elena).

A ver, una preguntita para todos los admiradores de las restingolitas humeantes y randiosas que estan saliendo del volcan, se acordaran que frente a ese lugar, ahora mismo hay gente por la calle, en sus casas, niños, etc y que estamos a la espera de que abra mas cerca por lo que ya hemos visto y hablado? recuerdad que es frisural? recueradan que puede haber una erupcion hidromagmatica en cualquier momento que verla ante las camaras es un espectaculo pero muy muy peligroso???........... espero que lo recuerden y las autoridades tambien.


Do see, a little question for all fans of the steaming restingolitas and randiosas that are coming out of the volcano, agreed that from that place, now there are people on the street, in their homes, children, etc and are awaiting that open closer so already we have seen and spoken? recuerdad that is frisural? recueradan which may have an hidromagmatica eruption at any time that see it before the cameras is a spectacle but very dangerous?... I hope that they remember and also authorities. (Translated by Bing)

Note 346 AVCAN - earthquake activity - VOLCANIC - island of HIERRO - 26 November 2011-21: 30 h peninsular - suing-volcanic activity continues moderada-alta Seismicity in the Navy in the Gulf area. Continues an important signal of volcanic tremor in the area of la Restinga, which stays in amplitude with rising (10%) since the last note, with small oscillations and some explosions, possibly hidromagmaticas (by the way has repeated the pattern of explosions every 3 hrs approx.). The magnitude of earthquakes between 2.2 and 1.5. New earthquakes 4. Depths to 17, 19, 19, and 20 km. yesterday 8. Yesterday 10. Today will be 8. In total van 11821 earthquakes located in El Hierro by IGN from 9: 00 pm of the day 19 July 2011 (Henry).

The seismicity of the five last days is it scatters, but remains concentrated in the Gulf, in fact, today all earthquakes in the central Gulf marine zone, and the rest of previous days, especially on 22 and 23 were concentrated rather indicating entry again magma in the system.

In addition, like previous days, turns to align according to the NNW-SSE direction, aligned from the sea of the Gulf up to the area of eruption in the sea off la Restinga, with any earthquake in the interior of the island and in fact another earthquake yesterday in the area of Cala Pinar. You can also see alignment n-S from the Tanganasoga to the North, a couple of degrees tilted eastward and southward with a pair of earthquakes in the area of the Julán, which must be added another one yesterday. These two alignments are the most activity being the last few days, but you can see other children.(Henry)

Seeing the curve of energies, certainly seems that it has returned to the pattern of each h 48 and earthquakes of 2 in 2 separated by 6 h and entrariamos in the next step, see tonight that activity there is this evening, I remember that the system is still releasing energy, although it seems that it is relaxing... or it has hooked as I come again.... and disengage with an strong earthquake, we'll see what happens (Henry).

Oh my goodness Roar. I hope you have a large toilet. Some of the rocks that reached land were one metre wide. Give up those giant sized beans.[][][][]

I didnt notice any rocks at all but saw about eight plumes of steam or smoke, one which seemed to have low level grey ash or something today. I think these are the Restingolitas in this picture jand but will double check on AVCANS photos because I think they had a pic a long time ago. http://www.abc.es/20111102/sociedad/abci-explosion-volcanica-hierro-201111021751.html

PS I checked through all AVCANS photos of rocks and it seems that they have given their own name to the type of rock which is coming from the volcano.

Translated from AVCAN...

We propose a name for the stonework that the eruption of El Hierro has left on the surface. And because of their rarity and uniqueness, we suggest that they are named after their place of origin. Our proposal is RESTINGOLITAS.

[fifi]

Oh dear.[]

[TripleH]

Fi, I love your attitude. Serious in topic but still light hearted with it. Nice one

[fifi]

Thanks Triple H.[]

Just a quick look. Raymond Matabosch the French volcano follower believes that because  the explosions are visible from the surface, the top part of the eruptive cone is less than 100 meters deep ...

and phreatomagmatic eruption is very close in a few hours or few days at most (I think what we saw today were little ones?)

I will be glued to the webcam to see if he is right.[]

[pennylane]

I cant't for ther life of me find it right now
but yesterday when I was googleing I saw a site with rocks for sale
I'm searching for it now.....
It was on a link to an El Hierro site.....
