The lava flow at Fogo between Monte Beco and Monte Saia cones on 21 Jan (OVCV)

The same flow front, developed as pahoehoe, on 28 Jan (OVCV)

Mild intermittent explosive activity continues at the volcano accompanied by effusive activity. A new lava flow, smaller than the ones in the first weeks, but still well alimented, has been active in the Cha caldera over the past days and advanced slowly approx. 1500 m west-southwest passing between Monte Beco and Monte Saia cones.
