Tremor amplitude at Fuego volcano during 9-11 July 2017 (image: INSIVUMEH)
The latest paroxysm (the 6th in 2017 so far) ended in the afternoon of 11 July after having lasted 31 hours. During the peak phase, pulsating lava fountaining generated a tall ash plume and fed multiple lava flows that descended the flanks of the volcano.
