Volcano watch
Japan: A new island appears in the Ogasawara Islands - November 2013
Active volcanoes (Sep 28, 2012)
"Of course all volcanoes will explode, as this is going to be a very severe pole shift. What about the months and years preceding the pole shift? It is no secret that Mammoth Lake and the caldera of Yellowstone are warming up, and the populace has been prepared for these occurrences by the movie Volcano where there, in the middle of LA, lava is bubbling up. In fact, there is a fault line running from the approximate San Diego/LA area, up into the Sierras, and this is liable to rupture rather violently during one of the quakes that precedes the pole shift by some months. Volcanic eruptions from that area in the Sierras can be expected. Will Mount St. Helen erupt? All volcanoes that have been active within the memory of man will begin spewing and burping and oozing, and many that were not expected to become active will reactive. " ZetaTalk - Feb 15, 2000

Nicaraguans Wary as San Cristobal Volcano Rumbles (Mar 6)
Communities living near Nicaragua's San Cristobal volcano were on edge Friday, after two volcanic explosions shook the region.
San Cristobal spewed ash and smoke twice on Thursday afternoon, according to La Prensa newspaper.
The first explosion sent volcanic material shooting as high as 200 meters, while the second one produced a column of smoke and ash 500 meters high.
The newspaper said the ash affected at least three nearby communities – all located in the state of Chinandega.
Local authorities say they are closely monitoring the volcano for signs of a full scale eruption. For now, though, the government is urging locals to remain calm.
Along with being Nicaragua's highest volcano, San Cristobal is also widely viewed as the country's most active. The volcano has repeatedly erupted in recent years, but usually doesn't threaten locals.
In 2012 and 2013, thousands of nearby residents were forced to evacuate twice, amid fears of a major volcanic event.

Powerful Eruption at Indonesia's Mount Soputan (Mar 7)
A new explosive eruptive phase occurred this morning, producing an ash plume that rose 4.5 km from the volcano's summit and pyroclastic flows that traveled 2.5 km.
Mount Soputan in Southeast Minahasa District, North Sulawesi erupted at 05:09 pm Central Indonesian Time (GMT+8).
Head of Data and Information Center of the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) Sutopo Purwo Nugroho said here, Saturday, on a broadcast statement that according to a report of the Volcanology and Geology Disaster Mitigation Center (PVMBG), Mount Soputan spewed pyroclastic flow to the east side of the volcano reaching 2,500 meters from its peak.
Volcanic ash was falling to several sub-districts in Southeast Minahasa District such as Silian Raya, Touluaan, Tombatu, Pasan and Rataha.
The volcano is still in alert level III status.
"There are no people evacuated as the nearest residential area is located eight kilometers from the mounts peak," Nugroho said.
In June 2008, Mount Soputan erupted and spewed pyroclastic flow reaching a radius of 6.5km from the peak.
The authority, therefore, stated that people activities are banned in the area within 6.5km radius from the Mount Soputan peak.

More on the powerful volcanic eruption in Chile today.
Chile's Villarica Volcano Sends Lava 3,000ft High (Mar 3)
Chile's Villarica volcano has erupted, sending lava 3,000ft into the air and cascading down the hillsides, and forcing the evacuation of over 3,000 people
The Villarica volcano in Chile has erupted after weeks of rumbling, shooting a column of lava 3,000ft into the sky in the early hours of Tuesday.
The 3am eruption forced more than 3,000 people from their homes and sent streams of lava down the mountain. One of the world's most active volcanoes, the 9,000-foot mountain is located in Chile's central valley about 400 miles south of the capital, Santiago.
Rodrigo Peñailillo, the Chilean interior minister, said: "We are continuing to evacuate people who are affected by the red alert zones.
"The National Geology and Mines Service (ONEMI) is evaluating possible flooding, which could be caused by melting on the volcanic cone."
The symmetrical volcano is situated on the shores of Lake Villarica, by the town of the same name. The region is a tourist hotspot, attracting thousands of people annually to climb the nearby hills and hike in the surrounding forests.
According to ONEMI, 2,100 people have been evacuated from the town of Pucon - one of the most popular tourist towns in Chile, and a centre for outdoor sports.
In the Villarica district, 20 people have been evacuated, while a further thousand people have left the "comuna" - district - of Panguipulli.

At the same time, confirmed that Red Alert status determined by the increased activity of the solid will remain at least until 09:00 am this morning, due to the risk of floods caused by melting snow in the mountains . The alert applies in the communes of Villarrica, Pucón and Curarrehue in the Araucania Region, and the Panguipulli, in Los Ríos.
The authority confirmed the suspension of classes in the three communes cited in La Araucanía and the Coñaripe, Los Rios. The same applies in the five colleges established as shelters in the latter region. Peñailillo said that evacuees, some 2,100 people were in safe areas in Pucon, and 265 people were in the same situation Licanray. In Coñaripe, Los Rios, 1,000 people also moved to safe areas...
The Secretary of State referred to the condition generated by the phenomenon after a meeting of the Emergency Operations Committee (COE). Following the report delivered about 6:18 pm, the head of the Interior moved to La Moneda to participate in a cabinet meeting convened by President Michelle Bachelet.
The eruption occurred at 03:00 when the volcano lava and smoke emitted at altitudes of about 3 km. The phenomenon caused residents of Pucón and other nearby towns began to evacuate their homes spontaneously. The risk of generating lahars, water flows and sediment that slide from volcanic cones eruptions experience, is one of the greatest dangers associated with such phenomena.

Alaska flights canceled over ash from Russian volcano
Updated 0712 GMT (1512 HKT) March 1, 2015
http://edition.cnn.com/2015/03/01/us/alaska-volcano-flights-cancele...
(CNN)A volcano in Russia led to the cancellation of flights in Alaska over the weekend.
"We canceled two roundtrip flights between Anchorage and Bethel, and Anchorage and Nome after an advisory of low visibility," Alaska Airlines spokeswoman Halley Knigge said.
Ash from Russia's Shiveluch volcano was the culprit behind the flight disruptions Saturday, said Jeff Freymueller, a scientist at the Alaska Volcano Observatory.
The volcano erupted Friday, shooting ash into the atmosphere some 30,000 feet. Winds blew the ash cloud across the Bering Sea and into western Alaska, Freymueller said.
Shiveluch, which has been erupting consistently, caused a similar incident in January, he said.
The airline will only operate flights when it's safe to do so and will not fly into areas of reported ash.
Alaska Airlines was uncertain if additional flights would be canceled, but said it's monitoring the situation.
Three volcanoes are erupting on Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula: Shiveluch, Klyuchevskoy and Karymsky.

Mexico's Popocatepetl Volcano Spews Ash, Cancels Flights (Feb 25)
A series of explosions at Popocatepetl volcano tossed hot rocks 700 metres down the volcano's cone and sent a column of ash nearly 4 kilometres into the sky.
It was the second time in 10 days the Popocatepetl volcano east of Mexico City spewed ash into the sky, forcing cancellation of flights at the nearby Puebla International Airport.
A statement from the government's airport oversight agency Wednesday said operations in Puebla were suspended at 6:30 a.m. (7:30 a.m. EST) to allow airport personnel to clean runways and other areas covered in ash.
On February 15, a similar eruption caused the cancellation of flights at the airport.
