Shiveluch volano in Russia.

Just like last summer seemed like a busy time for the Aleutians (Cleveland, Okmok and Kasatochi), this summer could be dubbed the “summer of Kamchatka-Kurils” (alright, it isn’t that catchy, sorry). The biggest news was/is, of course, the sizeable eruption from Sarychev Peak in the Kuril Islands, but not to be outdone, Shiveluch on the Kamchatka Peninsula has starting playing catchup.

KVERT is reporting that Shiveluch produced a 7 km / 23,000 foot ash column on Monday, with increased seismicity to go along with the explosions. These explosions are generating the ash column, along with avalanches (like dome collapse pyroclastic flows). This is at least the second time in June that Shiveluch has had a large eruption. All of the activity is part of the current dome growth sequence at Shiveluch (similar to what is going on at Redoubt) and KVERT warns “Ash explosions >10 km (>32,800 ft) ASL could occur at any time”, which seems to nail this current eruption. The area near this northernmost Kamchatkan volcano is sparsely populated so likely the ash column could only snarl air traffic heading over the region. Hopefully by this time next year, we will have a live webcam view of this type of activity at Shiveluch!

    There is already a webcam pointed on Shiveluch: http://data.emsd.iks.ru/videosvl/videosvl.htm
    However, the view is not so great and pretty hidden by trees.

    FYI: Some more volcano cams can be found on my website under http://www.stromboli.org/livecam.php

    being very objective when i say this: she didn’t do her walk/choreography in sync with the music. There were Obvious cues that she missed – that made the walk look just ok – compare it with Rani Mukherji – you’ll see the choreographer uses musical cues in the track to either pause, turn or act – its like a dance an Rani followed the choreography better. The only reason you like this is because even though Lolo made mistakes – she’s got charisma! ha
