The north flank of the 'Cumbre Vieja' volcano, on the island of La Palma, has suffered a new collapse on the afternoon of this Saturday, as reported by the Volcanological Institute of the Canary Islands (Involcan).

Already last night the north face of the cone registered a partial collapse, an expected fact in this type of volcanoes, which meant the emission of runoff in several directions.

During the day this Saturday, the wash that is located more to the northwest and that runs towards Paraíso Street in El Paso lost strength during the morning, so it is not a concern, although it is still being monitored at all times.

In addition, there is a second wash immediately to the south of this one that has also lost intensity and a third that is sticking to the main wash and that is the one of most concern because there is a hollow and the lava will take between 24 and 36 hours to fill it.

Finally, the 'finger' of the southern wash has not reached the sea and is standing still, but it is growing in thickness, which means that it is loading mass and at any moment it will take the inertia possible due to the weight and will advance towards the sea.

Latest update courtesy of Enrique.

09/10/2021 h Canary Islands.- LA PALMA ISLAND ERUPTION.- THE ENJOY ACCELERATES HIS SISMIC ENERGY EMISSION AND NEW CONE COLLAPSE DRAGGING BLOCKS LIKE HOUSES AND NEW NORTH COLLADA .- The most eye-catching thing is not what you see, it's what we don't see, the seismic energy emission rate released is right now higher than 100 MWh a day, like a 4.8. Earthquake. what does not make me or pinch of grace, as far from calm down, I see more and more angry at the seismic swarm or intrusion under the volcano. Curves speed up and speed up and on top generate good steps.

Before yesterday I commented I was releasing the equivalent of a 4. 4... and that night there was a 4.3, what worries me is that tonight we have a more intense one. Tonight past midnight put half an hour before or after maximum probability that will be at 1:10 h IGN, 02:10 h canaria 03:10 h peninsula hour. We'll see what happens, but as I say, I see it very active the swarm volcanic Earthquake under the island and I don't rule out that we have earthquakes in the 4.4-4.6 environment with this energy emission rate.

GRAPHICS:

https://www.volcanodiscovery.com/la-palma-earthquakes...

Be prepared and listen to all official recommendations, it is very important. In principle there are no earthquakes horns according to IGN public data that suggests that this will open up for a different location on the island, if any new mouths near the current air point.

Of course the IGN has an obligation to publish all the earthquakes, including the more harsh ones (rarely there are none) as they are in charge of volcanic surveillance. If information or omission of data is reserved to citizenship in this case could derive criminal and economic liabilities arising from a known and reckless risk to citizenship with possible death result of their perpetrators, so I do not believe that they have to do this barbaric and the fact that they don't locate anything, it should be because of the noise of the volcano, but as I say it is very strange.

Regarding the volcano, the pyroclast cone continues to grow with several mouths specializing in gas and ash at the top and continues to emit lava to full rag for 3 or more lower mouths. All these movements affect you of course, because the magma that comes out of it comes surely from the same site as this swarm, is more after intense earthquakes notice increases in flow of lava issued and collapses occur in the cone like this afternoon, which dragged house-size blocks shortly after several moderate earthquakes between 3.6 and 3.5 intensity.

And as for the flow coming down the north of the current one, those of the polygon tend to seek a new side toward the ravine that goes down the pedregal and passes through the south of the Laguna, even more north of the edge of the North laundry, so it's possible for a good isolated piece to stay and the flow swallow more houses more than 400-500 m from the current northbound laundry... we're fixed. Instead, the flow that goes alongside the current flow will continue alongside this one until we reach the north of the mountain of Todoque and border it on the north side, fitting into this same ravine surely and joining the one I mentioned earlier.

Part of the cone collapses and the lava flows causing great destruction
The new laundry violently destroys part of an industrial estate, crops, pylons and buildings, but does not cause casualties

Sunday, 10 October 2021, 02:00


The Cumbre Vieja volcano has exploded again. On Saturday night the north flank collapsed. The collapse occurred on the same day that the north face of the cone of the eruption of the new La Palma volcano collapsed.

This partial collapse of the north face of the cone of the new volcano has led to the emission of runoff in several directions, one of which has generated concern about displacing an important mass of lava.

This new upturn has facilitated the rapid and abundant exit of several lava flows, which also descended the slopes at high speed. The episode caused "tremendous destruction" in its wake in the La Laguna area, according to the first evaluations of the technicians. It destroyed part of an industrial estate, high voltage towers, numerous crops and some buildings. The only positive element is that there were no victims to mourn, as the burned area had been evacuated for days because it was one of those with potential danger.

La Palma registers a score of earthquakes since last midnight
The highest magnitude was 3.8 in Mazo. They are half of those located on the night of the previous day.

The National Geographic Institute (IGN) has located a score of earthquakes on the island of La Palma during the night - specifically 21 between 00.01 and 06.39 hours -, the most prominent one at 01.57 hours southwest of the Villa de Mazo of magnitude 3.8 and a depth of 34 kilometers.

In this sense, the number of earthquakes registered tonight was practically half that of the night from Friday to Saturday , when a quarantine of movements were reported, the largest also southwest of Mazo but of 4.1 degrees.

The 'seismic swarm' remains active in the south of the island, in the municipalities of Mazo and Fuencaliente, and average depths that range approximately between 11 and 15 kilometers, although some have also been recorded at more than 30 kilometers.

On the other hand, the average intensity of the earthquakes is around magnitude 3 -some slightly above and others below- . However, tonight there have been 3.5 movements in Fuencaliente -at 04.46 and 14 kilometers deep- and even a 3.1 earthquake at 06.39 hours in the sea to the southeast of the island, practically halfway of the distance between La Palma and La Gomera.

However, seismicity continues to be located, as in recent days, at a great depth and no deformity of the terrain has been recorded outside the volcano area.

As for the eruption, it continues to maintain the same behavior as the previous days with a volcanic explosiveness that continues at level 2 on a scale with a maximum of 8.

The stream located south of the cone is the "most worrying"
According to the report of the Department of Homeland Security, it is a significant mass of lava. So far, the affected area amounts to about 500 hectares.

The stream located south of the cone of the Cumbre Vieja volcano, on the island of La Palma, located close to the main stream, is the one that "most worries" experts today because it is a significant mass of lava.

This is reflected in the latest report of the Security Department Na tional published at 08.00 hours on Sunday with data from the Canary Islands Government and the Institute National Geographic, in which it is recalled that on Saturday there was the collapse of the northern flank after register at dawn on Friday a partial rupture of the wall of the cone, which has caused the exit of large blocks of material and the appearance of new flows.

For its part, the new flows have caused the lava to reach the Camino de La Gata Industrial Park and has reached new buildings and land. So far, the affected area amounts to about 500 hectares.

Regarding the fajana or lava delta, it continues its expansion in a north-south direction, feeding from various points and reaching an area of ​​32 hectares.

Meanwhile, air quality has improved compared to the previous days and is expected to continue like this during the day, while, regarding seismicity, earthquakes are still located at a depth of between 11 and 15 kilometers with a medium magnitude below 3, so it is not ruled out that they continue to occur

The new lava flow, up to 1,240ºC, destroys what was left in Todoque
The lava tongues extend for more than 497 hectares and have destroyed more than 1,186 buildings, according to the European Copernicus system

The new lava flow, with temperatures of up to 1,240 degrees Celsius , has destroyed the few remaining buildings to the north of Todoque, on the Canary Island of La Palma, as reported this Sunday by the Canary Islands Volcanological Institute (Involcan).

For its part, the Cabildo de La Palma reported today that despite the fact that last night "the volcano was louder" and there were many vibrations, it has passed without incident.

The evolution of the eruption continues within the normal process of a volcano , affirms the Cabildo palmero, which emphasizes that scientists continue to monitor the activity to guarantee the safety of people.

He adds that evacuated residents with properties outside the security perimeter will be allowed to collect clothes and belongings, and for this the access will be controlled and they will have the accompaniment of security personnel, after coordination with their City Council.

This measure may be subject to change depending on the meteorological conditions and the evolution of the eruptive process.

To date, lava flows extend over more than 497 hectares and have destroyed more than 1,186 buildings, according to the European Copernicus system.

The new river of lava that was released this Saturday afternoon when the north flank of the Cumbre Vieja volcano collapsed , in La Palma, carries with it, floating, blocks of rock the size of a three-story building , warns the Geological Institute and Miner of Spain (IGME).

The IGME has published tonight a video recorded on the ground by its scientists on La Palma very close to the new wash, in which the force with which it descends and the size of the blocks it drags can be appreciated, “equivalent to a house from behind floors ”.

Well yes, most urgent, cyclical patterns, 35 hours ago we had an earthquake magnitude 4.2 and 37 hours before a magnitude 4 3... or what's the same, the possibility of the earthquake I said was going for the early morning at 2:10 h Canary Island has been delayed to this maximum, despite everything yesterday we had a late moderate one and everything but not the one I expected.

es2021tvmpw 02:57:22 10/10/2021 01:57:22-28.5603 17.8118 mbLg III SW MAZO VILLA. ILP

Yesterday was dropping very well energy, with many earthquakes of 3 and almost 4 with a swarm of spasmodic tremor and signs of gas depressurization... but these last few hours has been quieter, less earthquakes and indicating that it has possibly been encountered another obstacle so you must be pressurizing and reserving the energy to jump harder..

The forecast for today is that we will pass another hour maximum at 13:35 h IGN, 14:35 h Canary Islands, 15:35 h peninsula. and then tonight last midnight at 2:00 h IGN, 03:00 h canaria 04:00 h peninsula time. We'll see what happens, but as I say, I see it very active the swarm volcanic earthquake under the island and I don't rule out that we have earthquakes in the 4.4-4.6 environment with this energy emission rate.

EDITED: If I notice the earthquake earlier, it comes forward for a while or it will do in several.. a 4.1, which was initially a 4.2 to 22 km under Old Summit. Don't trust yourself.

It gives me that this volcano is like a rumbly boy who when he shuts up is that something prepares.

Temperatures of 1240°C have been measured in volcano's flow that continue to flow through the north side of the field of la. Lava flow has buried and ravaged all the houses left north of Todoque. In the photos of 10:00 h today from a drone, it looks like the front of fluid and very hot flow that was bordering the field of flow on its north side has passed Todoque (9 B flow) and is heading to the ocean, being the front more or less north east - north of the mountain of Todoque. As for the other laundry that was killing the polygon (flow 9 A) continues its progress more slowly, but is well fed and progressively and is about 300 m below the campgrounds path and 1 km away still from General LP-2. E n when I have the map ready I put it to you.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XE3fOnZpLU

And what to say about the videos there is... yesterday a huge block appeared in several videos dragged by a lava channel between houses... it's awesome.

https://twitter.com/i/status/1447149569368903684

Last time I finish with deformation, where LP03 goes down a bit and LP04 and MAZO goes up a bit.. we stay the same, but it can be interpreted as swelling from the south and east (by the swarm in depth) and sinks on the north (eruption zone)

GPS. http://www.ign.es/.../vol.../html/PA_serie_DEF_20210911.html

The tremor instead remains more or less stable,, a little wing, that if lower than the first days of eruption, because it has cleared the throat (the ducts of the dam) and removed the water in good part of the journey with a steam seal with a magma so hot.

Tremor:

We'll see what happens, but this goes on and there are two things, the volcano or eruptive point and the swarm or magma very pressurized looking for where to come out, most likely to do it by the open channel of this eruption... not though other possibilities have to be ruled out. (Enrique)

The change in wind direction could affect air traffic in Tenerife tomorrow
This wind turn will cause a displacement of the ash plume and sulfur dioxide from its current position with a north-south configuration to a west-east distribution throughout Monday.

EUROPA PRESS10/10/2021 · UPDATED 15:12


The calculations of the amount of lava emitted by the La Palma volcano vary between 39.6 and 60 million cubic meters (m3) depending on the measurement system used, a variation that highlights the difficulty of having a exact figure.

This was made clear this Sunday during the press conference after the Scientific Committee, which was attended by the technical director of the Canary Islands Volcanic Emergency Plan (Pevolca), Miguel Ángel Morcuende; and the director of the National Geographic Institute (IGN) in the Canary Islands, María José Blanco.

Precisely Blanco pointed out that Involcan stated in today's meeting that the value of the magma expelled from sulfur dioxide emissions reaches 39.6 million cubic meters.

On the other hand, to highlight the difficulty of reaching an exact data, he observed that the estimated value through a satellite measurement raises the figure to about 60 million cubic meters. "There is a dance of figures that at this time it is not possible to confirm," he clarified.

VARIATIONS IN WIND DIRECTION

On the other hand, the director pointed out that this Sunday the prevalence of the north component will continue but as of this Monday, between 07:00 and 13:00, a western component turn is expected.

This turn of the wind will cause a displacement of the ash plume and sulfur dioxide from its current position with a north-south configuration to a west-east distribution throughout tomorrow.

"The expected changes in the wind regime - he continued - may affect the operation of La Palma Airport starting tomorrow and it cannot be ruled out that it will also affect the airports in Tenerife".

AIR QUALITY IS REASONABLY GOOD

In this regard, the director of Pevolca has explained that the air quality on La Palma is reasonably good as the maximum thresholds for sulfur dioxide and the size of the suspended particles are not exceeded.

In total, he explained that the area affected by the volcano is already 525.77 hectares â€"33.02 more than yesterdayâ€"; that the maximum width after the rupture of the northwest cone this night amounts to 1,520 meters; and that the strip occupies about 34 hectares of land.

In addition, Morcuende explained that of the 1,281 infrastructures damaged by the lava, 1,186 have been destroyed and 95 have suffered damage.

SEVERAL WASTE

On the runoffs, after the destruction of the cone, several of these new emissions have taken place, the one located further to the northwest being practically braked.

Meanwhile, the second one that is more to the northwest has activity and two branches; the north branch, which is at the height of the Cementera, advances at about five meters per hour - a minimal advance. "But we are monitoring it because it can reach the head of a mini-basin and vary the route, which could create some complication that would entail taking new civil protection measures," he said.

Finally, in the lower part, the other branch has already passed the LP-213 road and the forecast is that it will go parallel to the previous one and look for an exit in the north of the Todoque mountain pushing the old arm that has been stopped for days .

Enrique did an update yesterday.

10/10/2021 h Canary Islands.- PALM ISLAND ERUPTION.- TAILS ABOUT TO GET TO THE SEA, BUT HAVE ARRIVED NOW (PHOTO I THINK IS NOT FROM NOW). - After bordering the mountain of Todoque coming down alongside the North of ancient flow, the fast flow (9 A flow) and fluid has followed its path to the coast and will arrive tonight to the ocean to touch the sea water ( see pictures and map).

EDITED: Around 22.55 pm Canary Islands north flow arrives in the ocean.

https://twitter.com/i/status/1447319876142501891

The other 9 B flow keeps dropping further north yet and on an Antena 3 show I've seen it's very well fed so it won't stop and go over 500 m per hour with two fronts of 100 m wide each, it is divided into the polygon with which destruction will be greater, but will eventually end up bounding or climbing on top of the first 9 A flow when it reaches the north side of the mountain of Todoque ..

Regarding the volcano continues its special eruption very maintained and with continuous lava squares by its low mouths and burning pyroclasts climbing 400-500 m above the cone of the highest mouths, with more powerful moments where it overflows alternating with moments more stable, all of which continues to make Jet noise and explosions that form sonic waves that vibrate windows up to 10 km away.

These days the volcano morphology has changed and more pyroclasts have fallen on its south and west side, causing a larger volcanic building to be built and flow pour now mostly northward.

THE ENJOY.. this today has crumb, I tell you, after these more intense earthquakes there are changes, the first and most evident is that the magma moves upward, and this is revealed by three factors, it shows that there are several earthquakes in depths less than 7-8-9 km, you can tell because from today and something after 4.2 the other day episodes of spasmodic tremor with many earthquakes in a row that indicate that movement in depth and third, the appearance of much 18 Hz noise on spectrograms, in the form of a typical band depressurizing deep fluids around 10 km... white and bottle.

This will be confirmed in the coming days where deformation should be singing with increasing inflation or lifting the ground due to increased pressure. The volcano is also making a lot of noise due to gas depressurization in the 5 and 8 Hz line and the magma by frictioning with the conduit walls at frequencies between 0,5 and1 Hz... let's go spectrum tells me everything.

Now, I hope this new magma pulse reaches the surface through the current conduit that will overpress so that when it reaches the surface it is possible that some new mouths will open. But there is another option, and the pressure is very high and looking for an alternate route I do not think, but seismicity and deformation I think would indicate us at least 24-48 h ahead to the appearance of it.

I'm inclined to think that second possibility is less likely while the eruptive channel is open, but if this channel closes or shutters, I'd do as in 1949 heading out through the summit zone by the Nambroque or something else south towards Summit Old and even further south in the Degollada, but the current eruption has to stop for that to happen. In 1949 he did, after 18 days of the eruption stop. And that's it.

Sleep calmly today, it will keep moving and I don't think it will do anything new except some collapse or overflow of the lavic channel as we're watching on TV.

I finish with a term you may have heard and do not understand its meaning ′′ a Kipuka ": The kipuka is a Hawaiian tree with a beautiful red flower that reminds of a madroño from afar, but that does not look close and that grows on lava flow. Sometimes lava flow leaves an island or area unattended and the forest of kipukas survives leaving an island of vegetation, so that area is known as a kipuka, an area surrounded by devastation caused by lava coladas who have surrounded her and miraculously saved from flow(usually by being on a high, but not always). Another acceptance for these areas is a ′′ Dagala ".

Good night and until tomorrow... I will be answering the pile of messages and making a map, I'm not done, it's many and by many means. (Enrique)

PS: I recommend the following video of the 2018 Hawaii eruption and how the inhabitants attempt to redo their lives. (If you are sensitive, don't watch it, I know you are going through the same thing).

EDITED: NEW TEMBLOR OF 4.0

Well, a strong one, this one wasn't expecting it, as I say it's changing, don't forget to fill out the questionnaire, it's been noticed across the island. (Enrique)

I leave you a figure with what the spectrum says, the spasmodic tremor, the appearance of a lot of noise at 18 Hz on spectrums, in the form of a typical band of depressurizing deep fluids around 10 km. The volcano is also making a lot of noise due to gas depressurization in the 5 and 8 Hz line and the magma by frictioning with the conduit walls at frequencies between 0,5 and1 Hz... let's go spectrum tells me everything.

La Palma volcano eruption update: high lava effusion rates, new lava arm at the sea, speculation about seismic activity


Today, the eruption continues with steady lava fountaining from the lower vent and strong degassing and ash emission from the upper vents, but is much less noisy compared to yesterday, to the relief of people living in the area many of whom were terrorized by the extreme noise of the eruption in recent days.
The decrease of sound intensity is however not an indication of what state the eruption is in its deeper underground. It is mostly reflecting how gasses can escape and interact with the ambient air at the very surface. The decrease of eruption sound is likely due to an enlargement of the upper conduits after several collapses and other changes occurred at the vents, which now are in a more stable configuration to allow the passage of magma in a more unobstructed way. It probably has no significance as to the eruption's effusion rate, which continued to be very high. The past day's activity changed the morphology of the main cone quite a bit, by accumulation of falling material from the mountains, as well as overlapping lava flows.
The result is that the cone overall grew significantly and most lava now is going into the northern flow, which has been following the northern margin of the flow field, causing lots of additional damage in the past 48 hours. It reached the sea last night around 22.55 p.m., after passing north Montaña de Todoque (the cinder cone near Todoque, already half circled by lava flows on the southern side).
Lava threatens La Laguna
Forming a rather narrow front, its rate of advance was very fast, at about 500-700 m per hour. It is now hoped that its channel or tube system will remain stable to direct the lava straight into the ocean instead of widening the flow or branching off, which would put the town of La Laguna at risk.

Seismic activity shows worrying signs
According to a post of a geoscience page VolcanesyScienciaHoy on facebook based in Tenerife, the current seismic activity points towards that more magma is moving upwards, as indicated by 3 factors:
- several earthquakes appeared at depths less than 7-8-9 km;
- after the 4.2 quake two days ago, there have been episodes of spasmodic tremor with many earthquakes in a row that indicate movement of magma in depth;
- since yesterday, the appearance of strong volcanic tremor at around 18 Hz frequency thought to be caused by depressurization of fluids at great depth around 10 km;
If these interpretations hold, there should soon be noticeable ground uplift visible in the GPS stations (which, so far, is not the case). What will next happen, when this new magma pulse reaches the surface, is unknown. In the best scenario, the current conduits will continue to cope with it and the magma will erupt from the existing vents. In the worst scenario, magma could open new fissures in a different area, even after another potential pause of the eruption should it occur. In a scenario in between, new fissures might open near the existing vents, and new lava would erupt onto existing lava fields.
No one can predict the future, but for sure the evolution of the eruption will be a highly interesting one and the experience intense for everyone involved, in one way or another.
