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

AUGUST 14:
Alaska - Cleveland Volcano update/warning: Volcano could be gathering steam for a much more severe explosion.
A volcano in Alaska’s Aleutian Islands has been erupting since the end of July, but could be gathering steam for a much more severe explosion. According to scientists at the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO), the Cleveland Volcano, a 5,676-foot peak located about 940 miles southwest of Anchorage has been seeping magma for several days. But this activity could only be a precursor to an explosive event powerful enough to send ash into the atmosphere. “The dome, if it continues to grow, could plug up the crater, creating pressure that could result in “a fairly sizable explosion that could throw ash up to flight levels,” said John Power, scientist in charge at the observatory, a joint federal-state operation. Observers on a August 8 NOAA flight photographed a small, dark-colored dome centered at the bottom of the summit crater. In the last clear satellite view of the summit on August 9 the lava dome was about 60 meters (197 feet) in diameter. The volcano is situated on Chuginadak Island which is currently uninhabited, so no humans are in immediate danger even if the volcano does produce a bigger eruption. The closest community to the volcano is Nikolski, an Aleut village of about 20 people located 45 miles to the east. However, the island does lie directly in the North America-to-Asia flight corridor used by major airlines. Powers also said that the secretion of lava and the building of a bigger dome is uncharacteristic for the Cleveland Volcano, but big explosions of other Alaskan volcanoes have occurred following a dome-building event. The observatory says the last significant eruption of the 5,676-foot volcano began in February 2001 and eventually produced a lava flow that reached the ocean. (Rsoe)

AUGUST 12 :
Eruptive activity of Etna volcano has restarted :
From today, August 12, morning the eruptive activity of Etna volcano has restarted. Based on visual and instrumental observations of the volcanic phenomena, the Civil Defense's Department (DPC) Central Functional Centre for Volcanic Risk issued a warning of "High criticality" for the summit area of the volcano and of "Ordinary criticality" for the areas in the middle slopes, at the foot of the mountain and in the urban areas. Starting from 6:00 am local time the monitoring networks of Catania's National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology recorded a sudden increase of volcanic tremor and at 8:07 am the surveillance video cameras recorded a Strombolian activity at the Pit Crater, at the base of the south-eastern crater of the volcano. This activity increased and brought at 10:03 am to a fountain of lava and the leak of an overflow lava flow, that extended from the Pit Crater to Valle del Bove. Contemporaneously, it was moreover reported the release of significant amounts of volcanic ashes in the atmosphere that transported by the wind are spreading to the South-East. Until August 22, 2011, it's banned the access to the volcano over the altitude of 2,920 m - next to Torre del Filosofo- both on the northern and southern sides, as established by an ordinance of Catania's Prefect. The Central Functional Centre continues monitoring the phenomenon through its competence centers responsible for the monitoring and surveillance of the Italian volcanoes (Sections of INGV and University of Florence), through the operational structures (Mountain Rescue and Guardia di Finanza and Corps of Forest Rangers of Sicily region) and local offices.

AUGUST 12 :
Earthquake activity in Katla volcano increases again :
It seems that Katla volcano earthquakes are increasing again. This increase appears to be similar to the increase in earthquakes before the glacier flood from the 9th to 17th of June and onwards until the glacier flood on 8th and 9th of July. The only difference now is that I am seeing this pattern earlier since I now know what to look for this time around when this is in its early stages.
How this is going to develop now is a wait and see process. But this might take as long time to get interesting as it did in June to July, to the event that ended with the glacier flood from Mýrdalsjökull glacier.

Mt. Ibu Emits Thick Smoke :
Mt. Ibu in West Halmahera regency has been emitting thick smoke, causing its alarm status to be raised on Sunday.
Ridwan, a volcanic observer at Mt. Ibu said the mountain’s activities had intensified over the past two weeks. Hundreds of small eruptions have been recorded by the seismograph. “There were numerous tremors. Therefore we increased its status to alert level II,” he said yesterday.
Ridwan said the mountain had been closed to hikers and people were prohibited from getting within 3 kilometers of Mt Ibu’s crater. “We announced this two weeks ago and have intensified our observations. We hope people will be aware,” he said.http://www.tempointeractive.com/hg/nasional/2011/08/11/brk,20110811...

AUGUST 10:
New Eruption Starts At Alaska’s Cleveland Volcano :
One of Alaska’s most active volcanoes has started erupting, according to the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO).
The 1,730 m (5,676 ft) high Cleveland Volcano, also known as Mount Cleveland, began erupting early on Tuesday. However, the stratovolcano’s remoteness is limiting opportunities for its study, reported the AVO which is relying heavily on satellites for monitoring.
According to the AVO: “Without a real-time seismic network on the volcano, AVO is unable to track local earthquake activity related to volcanic unrest, provide forecasts of eruptive activity, or confirmation of explosive, ash-producing events. AVO is monitoring the volcano using satellite data as it becomes available. Such data suggests that effusive eruption of the lava dome in the summit crater is possibly continuing.”
One of the most active volcanoes in the Aleutian Arc, Cleveland has erupted at least 21 times in the last 230 years. A VEI 3 eruption in 1944 produced the arc’s only direct volcanic fatality. Most recently Mount Cleveland has erupted three times in 2009, and twice in 2010.
The volcano is primarily hazardous to aircraft; many of the flights over the north Pacific approach the vicinity of the volcano, and volcanic ash released from eruptions can damage sensitive electronic equipment and sensors.

AUGUST 9:
Earthquake swarm north of Langjökull glacier and volcano, new hole found in Selfoss town :
Yesterday there was a minor earthquake swarm north of Langjökull glacier and volcano. This area did last time was last year when a good sized earthquake swarm did happen in this area, but last year it did start around this time of year and lasted until November. It remains to be seen if that happens now. So far all the data suggests that this earthquake swarm is just tectonic in nature. It also appears that earthquake swarms in this area start slowly with long breaks between them. So I am expecting more earthquakes there. Unless this has just been a single event with no repeats.
on Selfoss town they have just found a new strange hole in the road. The opening of the hole is about 1.5 meter in size. But the depth is about 6 meters (guess?) and area that is hollow under the hole is few hundred meters (guess?) according to the news. It is believed that this did happen because of the SISZ Mb6.3 earthquake that did happen in this area in the year 2008.

Indonesian volcano unleashes fresh burst:
A VOLCANO that has been spewing lava and clouds of searing gas high into the air has let out a new, powerful burst, sending panicked villagers streaming down the sides of the mountain.
A man who fell as he was fleeing was injured, said Ludianto, head of the search and rescue team.
The victim suffered only cuts and bruises.
Mount Karangetang on Siau - part of the Sulawesi island chain - started spitting clouds of gas and lava up to 600 metres on Friday, said volcanologist Surono.
Earlier today, hot ash tumbled down its slopes triggering fresh panic.
Nearly 600 people living along Karangetang's slopes have been evacuated, said Tonny Supit, the district chief.
Indonesia lies on the Pacific "Ring of Fire," an arc of volcanos and fault lines encircling the Pacific Basin.
The 1784-metre mountain is one of about 129 active volcanoes in Indonesia. It's last big eruption was in August, killing four people.http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/breaking-news/indonesian-volcano-u...

Volcano Eruption - Indonesian archipelago - Indonesia / West Sumatra :
The Bukittinggi Volcanology and Geological Disaster Mitigation Agency reported on Saturday that volcanic activity at the 2,900-meter-high Mount Marapi in West Sumatra remained high. “Volcanic activity at Mt. Marapi remains high even though seismic activity has decreased,” he said. The volcano erupted at 8:09 a.m., spewing thick ash clouds 300 meters into the air. Agam Regent Indra Chatri filmed the eruption from Candung, not far from Bukittinggi, and posted it on the Internet. The head of the Volcanology and Geological Disaster Mitigation Center, Surono said in Jakarta on Saturday that officials had increased the alert for Mt. Marapi and 15 other volcanoes across Indonesia. Other volcanoes include Mt. Papandayan in West Java, Mt. Merapi in Central Java, Mt. Sinabung in North Sumatra, Mt. Krakatau in the Sunda Strait, Mt. Bromo in East Java and Mt. Gamkonora, Mt. Gamalama and Mt. Tukono in Maluku, he said. Jambi volcanologist Heri Prasetyo said Mt. Kerinci was still on heightened alert. “However, residents living on the slopes of the mountain have not been instructed to evacuate,” he said.
