Just tremendous weather in South Devon. 16C, light winds and strong sunshine. I'm having to water my 2 Y-o hedge, as it is showing water stress!!
Can stay like this until April for me!
How about for the Arctic ice or do you want it to disappear for any reason?
The effusion of the viscous lava dome spilling over the southwestern rim as a broad lava flow continues at the volcano.
After a peak of activity around 1-2 Oct, the rate of effusion dropped 4 Oct, but regained again strength since 6 Oct and has been intense since. The lava dome's top slowly becomes more and more visible from below, although it currently only overspills the crater on the SW side feeding the lava flow.
The latter is currently about 2000 m long and 270 meters wide at its front at the base of the cone.
Time-lapse of the past week of activity (extended periods of bad weather are cut out)
