Neither here nor there.
This is the feeling I've been getting all along. When that one geologist came along and said the longest eruption, back in the 70's, was only 55 or so days I was like how can you really know this?

Found one that said worse case Texas coast around Corpus Christi was 163 feet.
But that's if there is a 3000 ft wave. There will be a 3000 ft wave shortly after monkeys fly out my butt. I've seen the "other" science that says the wave that hits NYC will be about 3 feet.
I couldn't agree more. Even if it all slides at once the prognosticators guess that the wave that will hit NYC will range from 3 ft to 3000 ft. No idea. I know two things for sure: 1) La Palma is VERY small and VERY far away from the east coast; and, 2) I know nothing about volcanology, geology, or any other ...ology associated with this issue.
I'm just attempting to watch with some type of reason.
ETA: I do know this for a fact: The longer this puppy belches fire, the more people will lose everything that they have forever. That is a fact.
Then I asked her when space aliens would land on earth. She said November 2021 in the US. Alexa is not a source of reliable information (including the weather). Alexa is a NSA listening device snooping on everything you do.

Neither here nor there.
And this is the million dollar question that’s not sexy! What if it has already been sliding just a few centimeters a day for the past thirty days. Again not sexy, or news worthy! Tambora any one?

Well, since my b-day falls in November, that isn't a good month for such shenanigans, lol.
I don't have and won't have an Alexa or anything similar. LOL, haven't even seen a magic 8 ball, except in stores, since the early/mid 70s. Granted, the new ones look way cooler than the old ones did.

They upgraded it and moved the location to show it was on the island but at a slightly shallower depth.

so, IGN and emsc have it rated differently, but I think there have been several times they were different. Since most of the ones come from IGN, I will keep the 4.9 until it is adjusted one way or other.
ETA: they downgraded it to a 4.5

I believe (hope anyway since they keep adding/adjusting) only two 4 plus quakes, confusion among the reporting agenies.
from livestream chat:
1:31 AMJus MackMorning a 4.9 and now a 4.5 @ 35km. Something brewing
1:33 AMCarlos@Jus Mack so 4.6M 1 hour ago, 4.9M 10 min ago at El Paso, now a 4.5M ....3 in a row.

Am hoping the differences between the reporting stations are part of the confusion, but I am not sure.
They downgraded the 4.9 to a 4.5

okay, the second one for now anyway, they have located on the central far East side of island, right above the airport.
The first one they positioned in central lower 1/4 of island.

One of the things the professor from a few weeks ago had said in addition to 3 main volcanoe plumes/one island from main lava base, was that he was also worried that the quakes and eruptions would unblock one of the other volcano plumes.
I don't remember which one he had said was partly or all the way blocked, but he was worried about having more than one of the volcanoes erupting (he was also worried about that one could totally collapse too).
He was an excitable man that spoke Spanish and used a pointer to stress his points. All I could do was keep replaying it and copy paste the type from the video and try to correctly spell the other words it sounded like he was saying for translation....lol. Maybe I should have replayed it a few more times.

It is still going strong, but visibility is very bad, so most cameras in same general areas/views.
ETA: there have been trucks loaded with furniture going past the cameras, so more evacuations are still being done, but I do not know from which areas.
info from the afarTV livestream:
6:52 AMEternal Life"Sulfur dioxide emissions remained significant with an average rate of 25 000 tons per day, and ash plumes rose as high as 3 km above the vents.
6:53 AMirishted13The new vent was identified by the Spanish gov’t experts yesterday
6:53 AMEternal LifeThe flow was 600 m across at the widest part and the leading edge was 4-6 m tall.
6:55 AMtoy runnerAccording to LPIndie Channel on YT a new vent has opened, app. 500m SE of the main vent. No lava flow confirmed, just ash and gas outflow. Sadly its acts completely independent from the main system.

I'll just point out that this volcano - as well as all the other ones - puts out more sulfur compounds and so-called greenhouse gasses than all of the cars and coal-fired power plants in the world. Most people, and especially the greenies, have no sense of perspective.
Next thing, we'll hear that Greta Thunberg wants to stick a catalytic converter on the LaPalma volcano!

The seismic activity is picking up. This is from the local newspaper, so it is extremely accurate and timely. I am seeing NO SIGN of any movement north into the landslide zone. On the map the landslide zone is well north of where the magma and earthquakes are happening. The various colored "balls" are where things are popping. The area north with the giant hole is visible is where the rocks would have to slide into the ocean and cause any "mega tsunami." Obviously, there is NO SIGN of any thing like that at all. To do so all of the colored things would have to move into that giant hole and then you would get the rock mass falling into the ocean and KABOOM.

INTENSE EARTHQUAKE SO FAR OF 4.6 DEGREES THIS MORNING
2021/10/16 10:47:37 Written by Canarian Weekly Tenerife
A total of 36 earthquakes have been registered on the island of La Palma since midnight last night, the strongest one of 4.6 degrees in Mazo, the highest magnitude felt so far since the eruption of the volcano began almost 4 weeks ago.
According to information from the National Geographic Institute (IGN), this 4.6 magnitude earthquake was registered at a depth of 37 kilometres at 4:41am this morning, and was followed up by a 4.5-degree quake at 6.07am in the same area and at the same depth, both felt by the population of the island.
The rest of last night’s seismicity oscillated between 2.3and 3.1 degrees of magnitude. 22 movements were registered in Fuencaliente, while in Mazo there have been 14 movements recorded by the IGN.
There have also been two small earthquakes recorded in Tenerife during the night, one of 1 degree in Santiago del Teide at a depth of 5 kilometres; and another in Guía de Isora of 1.7 at a depth of 4 kilometres.

Yes, that is about the earthquakes that happened Friday night US time. (see post 892)
La Palma Island is 5 hours ahead of Eastern time, 6 hours ahead of me in Central time, 7 hours ahead of Mountain time and 8 hours ahead of Pacific time zone.
Today, just after noon their time was a 4.0 after a 24 hour break.
list of 4.0 plus earthquakes over last 30 days.
Note: to get the accurate time the quake happened on La Palma Island, it is GMT+1.
For some reason, some quakes show both their local time at time of quake and GMT and some only show GMT time; adjust accordingly.
It is currently 3:28 PM Sunday, October 17 on La Palma.

Thanks for the thread. Go to for the updates, for sure.
Friend sent me a picture this morning, and the source link.
The source link I hadn't seen mentioned here, maybe I missed it. Lots of tools and views... Don't know if this link works well on cell phones - takes a lot of computing power.

La Palma eruption teaching resources
A collection of classroom ready GIS based applications for teaching about the La Palma eruption. Thanks to Alistair Hamill for the GIS based lesson and the Island Council of La Palma for making their data open

On TB every waking moment
Bushcraft Bear is preparing his bugout bag. He doesn't feel safe in the house anymore. (because of the quakes, making plans to sleep in garden due to quakes. Also making plans to possibly go to other parts of island if necessary because the officials have said new eruption points are expected to form in near future)

Has No Life - Lives on TB
Remember that I'm a (mostly) clueless volcano laymen. I have however been speaking with my professional geologist friend almost daily. According to him, the LaPalma volcano isn't the type that can explode like Tambora or Krakatoa. It could have comparatively minor explosions, though. Also (as I've mentioned previously) he agreed that my theory regarding the lava outflow was correct and made sense. IOW if enough lava builds up on the western side of the island, it could increase the weight on that side of the island enough to precipitate or contribute to a fault collapse which could cause a tsunami.
I'm not trying to freak anyone our here. These are all "coulds" and "maybes"... not guarantees of doom. Also, while my buddy is a degreed geologist, his specialty is not volcanoes. I think our conversations might be analogous to a trauma surgeon casually talking to an interested friend about infectious diseases. The surgeon, being an MD, is going to understand the basics of infections, but is not going to be a real expert in them.
Anyway, I supposed somewhat clued-in discussions are more productive than the clueless versions, right? If people here are interested, I'll try to contribute from time to time as - and if - our conversations result in new information or further developing theories.
If not, I suggest that everyone adorn themselves in volcano fetishes and dance, nude, to the volcano gods, on your front lawn at midnight. Go ahead and tell the cops that you got the suggestion to do this directly from Doc1. I'll use all my power and influence to have them serve you the fresher bologna sandwiches in the jailhouse :-)
