More info: Canary Islands Red Alert: “Eruption At El-Hierro In Near Future Increasingly Likely” Will we soon have an eruption of the El Hierro Volcano in the Canary Islands? According to Volcano Discovery, the scenario of this happening in the NEAR FUTURE is becoming increasingly likely. In fact, there is now a Red Alert and evacuations going on in La Restinga as shared in the first video below. Check out the map above of recent seismic activity in the area; something is surely getting ready to happen with 155 earthquakes above magnitude 2 today (Saturday) alone.

This sounds pretty serious! Latest update [link to mobile.volcanodiscovery.com] The earthquake swarm continues with little changes. Most epicenters have remained in an area at about 15-17 km depth a few km NW off the western tip of the island. Volcanic tremor, suggesting magma movements, is continuous with strong pulses every few hours. A strong pulse of volcanic tremor has started, accompanied by a 3.2 magnitude quake at 15 km depth at 09:40 GMT. It seems that magma is continuing to move, and the scenario of a possible new eruption is becoming more and more likely. Some of the earthquakes listed are quite shallow (few km), but they are most likely a result of tectonic adjustments caused by the ongoing inflation (about 5 cm so far for the western parts of the island). :infnty: :ihavgsbmp: |

I wasn't taking much notice of this. Thinking a pressure release magma movement that occurs once or twice a year but I just read a comment on Facebook from a guy who lives there and said they are all frightened because its non stop tremors and getting larger.. He says they must be censoring because there have been over a dozen over five that are not being reported. He said there were 2 that he says were over 7 magnitude and peeps are bugging out.. |

Update Mon 25 Mar 08:17 The likelihood of a new submarine eruption in the near future is increasing. Earthquakes and pulsating strong tremor continued with little changes, and a trend towards stronger quakes (a magnitude 4 event this morning), and shallower quakes as well (many at around 11-12 km depth today). The area has remained about 5 km off shore NW from the western tip of the island, ie. under the submarine prolongation of the volcano's western rift zone.

Have been watching also. They are increasing in size and frequency. Not good. They are swarms and we all know what swarms bring. Somthing bigger. My Sister had a dream about rocks raining down that were not on fire but a voice in the dream said comet. From all accounts Volcano's send off fire off fireballs. For many miles also. Somthing is going to give with this thing. This without a doubt is going to be "One Hell of a Dream" week. Its passover starting tomorrow thru April 2nd. March in like a Lamb and out like a Lion. |

This should be pinned so we can all keep tabs on this situation. Quoting: ResistancePress OP can you explain for everyone (including myself) what could possibly happen if this erupted? It would be appreciated!! =) Thank you RP. Yes, from what I understand, these earthquakes are occurring right where El Hierro volcano is located. Research shows, should this volcano blow, the western slope could collapse into the ocean...sending huge walls of water (possibly as much as 200 ft waves) towards the East Coast of the United States. :infnty: :ihavgsbmp: |

You know what else is weird about those quakes in the Canary islands? Their pattern resembles a bird slightly if you zoom in right. Zoom in about 9 times and check out the bird pattern of earthquakes. |

Last update: March 25, 2013 at 8:44 am El Hierro Volcano activity report – Very strong seismic activity + shallower hypocenters 2013-03-25 08:26 UTC - Yesterday ended with 159 earthquakes listed by IGN. The real number (including the weak and micro quakes) must run into the hundreds! - 73 earthquakes listed by IGN today including a lot of M3+ earthquakes and even a M4.0 earthquake which was felt all over the island. - The current seismic crisis is getting into a new phase with a lot of shallower earthquakes. The magma intrusion seems to have found his way up to 11 to 13 km, a huge difference compared to yesterday (16 to 17 km). - From now on we will have to watch satellite images to find out whether the ocean is coloring or not. Why ? Strong earthquakes (in the M3.5 to M4.0 range) combined with a depth of 10 km led to the first Las Calmas eruption vent. [link to earthquake-report.com] :infnty: :ihavgsbmp: |

Epicentrum in the ocean, kilometres away from the island, no pasa nada! It will probably erupt some time but as before just creating new land instead of swallowing land by mega-tsunami. Just a dramatized doom-story! |
