I missed the weekly report last week (sorry), but here is the new USGS/SI volcano activity report.
Highlights include:
- Shiveluch in Kamchatka is still erupting away, producing ~7 km / 20,000 foot ash columns as the lava dome grows. There has also been pyroclastic flows spotted emanating from the new lava dome.
- There was a report of a ~7.5 km / 25,000 foot ash-and-steam plume from El Reventador in Ecuador.
- More small plumes and incandescent lava bombs were spotted at the Tavurvur Crater at Rabaul in Papau New Guinea
