Canary Islands, El Hierro probably is going to erupt today

reply to post by Nidwin


Wow thats alot of ground movement.. thanks for the data will take me some time to look through it properly. It is strange tho how nothing in the mainstream media about this as of yet. If your on the ground there, take care and make sure if any event happens have that camera handy.

Last eq was on 16 km magma and pressure going up, very possible we have submarine eruption 24-48h ..

Pressure is strong, you can see that on other islands graphs ..

Latest news I could find

"Very important Update 03/11 – 12:13 UTC :
Jill, one of our many readers just attracted our attention to an article in the Canarias7.es. Canaria7. es wrote shortly ago that the burbuja or jacuzzi, as the islanders call the eruption spot, has been active for a while. A scientist has been flying to the spot by helicopter and the burbaja was well seen from Arena Blanca, a viewing point in between El Pinar and La Restinga. Canaries7 says also reports that Juan Manuel Santana denied an evacuation order at this moment.

Very important Update 03/11 – 12:02 UTC :
Joke has just called her friend at La Restinga. A lot of movements are going on + the burbuja (Jacuzzi) seems to be back again (not confirmed message in DiarioElHierro). Jokes friend is packing her luggage, she said. But at the moment we do not know whether it is her own decision or a mandatory evacuation.
The information we are getting is conflictual (facts combined with apparently rumors). The question mark in the title is very important.
We expect a message from Pevolca with their current estimate of what exactly is going on soon. Joke is questioning a lot of people in El Pinar and has called some people"

03/11/2011 @ 12:16 – The ‘bubbling’ effect has reappeared in the same area as previously reported in the ‘Mar de Las Calmas’ sea off the south cost of El Hierro. It has been decided to not evacuate the town of La Restinga at this stage
I have just sent another email to ask for confirmation that there is no evacuation at the moment. Will let you know

Update

Just back although his English is not that good.

My question
Hello. Hope you are all ok. We are getting rumours that mandatory evacuation is happening, is this true?


The answer
Hi, no, the opposite. They are not yet evacuating La Restinga due to this

Hopefully everything is ok. I will keep you updated as much as I can.

I think so too. Everything is getting stronger again but hopefully it won't be too bad when it does go,

Updates:

Update 04/11 – 13:55 UTC :
Scientists of IGN who could overfly the area this morning are now convinced that they have lined up the different eruptive submarine vents. It looks more and more that Las Calmas sea eruptions are fissure like vents opening up at different places.

Very Important Update 04/11 – 13:37 UTC :
Joke Volta reports from La Restinga :
– we just went from El Pinar to La Restinga
– a very sulfurous ‘rotten egg’ odor was noticed on parts of the road
– the viewpoint towards the Las Calmas sea is showing multiple Jacuzzi spots close to the island
– Joke took some pictures, but she is not sure whether it can be see on the pictures (she works with a cheap camera)
– she is now heading back to El Pinar and will send the images shortly
- she also told us that she believes the jacuzzi to be closer to La Restinga than last week

Source

Source has some good pictures.

It looks like El Hierro just had a Mag 4.4 west of Frontera. Here is a link for the Event.
21 km deep. The waveform charts still look like the pressure is trying to find an opening to the surface.
Hope everyone in the vicinity is safe.

Update from

The Earthquake measuring 4.4 at 20:36 has caused slight damage. It was also felt on La Gomera & Tenerife.

04/11/2011 @ 19:15 – The underwater volcanic eruption taking place off the coast of El Hierro, south of La Restinga, is moving towards the coast, according to Pevolca. The magma is finding places to break through the seabed surface but they have confirmed it is slowly moving towards the coast of the island.

You know, I am very surprised here that more Folks are not here with us following this major event. I wonder why that is? Is there another Thread here?

For me - I am here and loyal and please understand that when I am at home, I am on dial up and it is harder for me to pull up information. -

It appears to me that the whole of the area is opening up like a zipper - "The Fissure" (in a vioce coming from the guy introducing bugs bunny to I forget the real name - hehe) - anyway, - Oh wait - "The Crusher" -- let us hope that is not the case. -

Keep safe all. Will try to pull up info tomorrow. nighty, night
