Short update - Mt Etna, Sicily

During the past week, moderate Strombolian explosions occurred at times at the South East Crater complex. The tremor was subject to strong fluctuations and reached high levels several times.
This evening there was sustained Strombolian activity. The explosions were often strong enough to eject incandescent material onto the upper flanks of the cone. It is possible that this activity will escalate into a paroxysm.

You can find more information on my website vulkan-etna-update.de (German language).
