  1. 4 days ago, reported above, some pyroclastic ejection too, luckily, not towards populated areas.
  2. This was referred to in one of the Etna videos over the weekend, looks like its headed up the Adriatic
  3. Currently reverse Ops at Los Angeles airport, arrivals only in the most.
  4. New York Times... California bore the brunt on Sunday of what meteorologists referred to as a “bomb cyclone” and an “atmospheric river,” a convergence of storms that brought more than half a foot of rain to parts of the Bay Area, along with high winds, flash floods and the potential for heavy snow in the Sierra Nevada. From Marin County to the area just south of Big Sur along the Pacific Coast, flash flood watches were in effect until late Sunday night and, in some areas, early Monday morning, including parts of the San Francisco Peninsula. The system was so vast that it was expected to reach southern British Columbia on Monday, where it was set to bring rain and strong winds, according to the National Weather Service in Seattle and Tacoma, Wash.

  5. Some stunning footage by the Geological Institute drones, they are getting quite good at this now!
  6. Yes, been watching this build up for a couple of days, may be some historic snowfall on the mountains too. This isnt going to help the long term drought status much as too much is arriving in such a short period. California transport cams.

  7. Bit more detail for today's outbreaks, could be a 3 day event moving ENE.
  8. Partial cone collapse today in La Palma, yet to see if it slows the Northerly lava flows.
  9. ...and the late season fun continues... Sunday outbreaks expected for the Missisipi area up to the Ozarks.
  10. Quite devastating for La Laguna to have the lava turn and/or get blocked by the large chunks of rock brought down in the flows.
  11. The news gets worse. The local water supply is now being affected by the volcano along with property roofs collapsing under ash weight. The solar farms are unable to produce energy for the same reason. Look at the size of this chunk...
  12. Making waves: World's most powerful tidal turbine gets to work WWW.BBC.CO.UK A tidal-powered turbine, which its makers say is the world's most powerful, has connected to the grid.
  13. The latest lava flow extent, unfortunately spreading Northwards, although quite a lot is travelling through tunnels to the sea as well.
  14. Day 29 ...and very good drone footage of extent ..
  15. Updates With a 4.5 quake overnight... Vast amounts of ash now endangering building roofs.
  16. The lava pumping out with no quarter now!!
  17. Rinse and repeat today, significant hail along with a few tornado and ending up in a strong squall line
  18. outhern Plains... A classic "second season" severe event appears to be in order for parts of the Southern Plains this afternoon and evening, featuring tornadoes, large hail and severe gusts. The greatest threat will be bound on the north and west by the cold front and dryline, covering parts of OK and north TX. Severe potential should persist into tonight toward the Ozarks/Ouachitas, Arklatex region and parts of north and central TX. For much of the day, the boundary layer across the southern Plains near the front and dryline will remain capped, restricting substantial vertical mixing to the boundary layer, and permitting moist advection amidst heating/destabilization. This capping will be maintained into early/mid afternoon as a modest EML and some relatively warm midlevel temperatures move over the area, downstream from -2 to -4 deg C 500-mb temperatures analyzed over northwest through southwest TX and northern MX at 00Z last night. However, strong height falls and cooling aloft, along with strengthening mid/upper flow and deep shear, will occur mid/late afternoon ahead of the strong mid/upper trough. A north-south corridor of peak/ preconvective MLCAPE around 1500-2000 J/kg should develop from central TX northward to southwestern/central OK. Meanwhile frontal convergence/lift near and northeast of the dryline should act on diurnally weakening MLCINH. By the time of deep convective development (likely in the 22-00Z window), the parameter space over portions of southwestern/central and south-central OK ahead of the front and dryline will support supercells, with surface dew points into the mid 60s F, 50-60-kt southwesterly effective-shear vectors, and a strengthening LLJ that will enlarge hodographs. Effective SRH should be favorable from the outset of first storms' maturity, increasing into the 300-450 J/kg range this evening. This will support a cyclic tornado threat from any sustained, discrete supercells, which also will offer a damaging-hail and severe-gust hazard. The big hodographs also will persist eastward after activity evolves to more quasi-linear modes and backbuilds into parts of north TX, supporting continued tornado potential. Damaging-gust threats should expand eastward and southward as the convection does likewise this evening.
