Fuego volcano (Guatemala) activity update: continuing moderate ash explosions

Thursday Jan 19, 2012 01:01 AM | Age: 129 days
BY: T

Fuego volcano produced explosions observed on 11-13 and on 16 January, which produced ash plumes rising 400-1000 m above the crater. Shock waves and rumbling sounds accompanied the explosions and rattled windows and roofs in nearby villages.
Rock avalanches traveled SW into the Ceniza drainage and on the W, S, and SW flanks. At night on 13 and 16 January incandescence was visible from the crater.
