The main problem in the Lakes is the persistence of the rain, once all the Lakes are full, the pools, streams etc, and the thin soil is so saturated, the rain just runs off the fells as if there was a tarpaulin covering it. So very quickly, the rivers are taking vast amounts of water from everywhere and rise dramatically.

It does seem slightly worrying as the Kent at Kendal bridge isnt far off 2015 levels already, with 24 hours of the rain conveyor left

4 days ago, reported above, some pyroclastic ejection too, luckily, not towards populated areas.

This was referred to in one of the Etna videos over the weekend, looks like its headed up the Adriatic

Currently reverse Ops at Los Angeles airport, arrivals only in the most.

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.

Some stunning footage by the Geological Institute drones, they are getting quite good at this now!

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.

Bit more detail for today's outbreaks, could be a 3 day event moving ENE.

Partial cone collapse today in La Palma, yet to see if it slows the Northerly lava flows.

...and the late season fun continues... Sunday outbreaks expected for the Missisipi area up to the Ozarks.

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.

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...

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.

The latest lava flow extent, unfortunately spreading Northwards, although quite a lot is travelling through tunnels to the sea as well.

Day 29 ...and very good drone footage of extent ..

Updates With a 4.5 quake overnight... Vast amounts of ash now endangering building roofs.

The lava pumping out with no quarter now!!

Rinse and repeat today, significant hail along with a few tornado and ending up in a strong squall line
