1) La Palma volcano thread for October 3.
2) Eruption continues at impressive intensity. Lava output rate remains very high, volcanic tremor is stable at high levels. New lava flow from vents just below NW base of erupting cone, slowly wind thru land N of existing flow field, destroying more buildings & infrastructure.
3) ➡ Dawn is the fifteenth day of the eruption.

➡ There have been no personal injuries and we are already working on the recovery of the areas of influence of the flows.

➡ The volcano continues to evolve within the parameters predicted by scientists.

8) Data obtained by scientists from magma of La Palma 🌋, indicate it contains large amounts of tefrita, indicating it’s been evolving under island for 1000s of years, in a chamber in the upper mantle and a little oceanic cortex.
9) According to the Portuguese Institute of the Sea and the Atmosphere (IPMA), the wind has transported particles from the eruption of the volcano, which have reached the Portuguese islands "in the form of sulfate aerosol".

14) “Eruption 2:40 p.m. Maintains verticality and injection of ash. Pyrocumulus formation in the upper atmosphere upon eruption.”
15) 📍 The fajana has four lava feeding points and continues to increase its surface, about 30 hectares

📍 Air quality in non-evacuated areas continues to be good
16) A clear increase on the effusive activity has been observed in the last minutes.
17) In the last minutes, the effusive activity in the eruption has increased notably, according to @involcan
