If you ask me ash is only good to start the fire (like it’s name says :P ). On the other hand my wife is crazy about it and she wants to renovate house with it… I guess those insurance guys should get ready ^_^

Villarrica is showing a bit more stronger activity. According to POVI the incandescence is at its maximum of last 6 months.

In these webcams you can see the plume:

It is intresting to see the Smithsonian Institution put Kilauea as yellow rather then orange. I know it has calmed quite a bit but the potential for a rise in activity is great and there are still lava flows pushing thier way to the sea.

I hope Kilauea gives the BBC a nice show. Hope they also discuss the recent earthquake swarm there (though that probably was tectonic), and it complicates volcano studying.

It might make for a less visually dramatic show if Kilauea did end its eruption during those four weeks, but maybe that would be a blessing in disguise: Scientists have ways to tell if a volcano is going to erupt, but there seem to be few details known yet about how and why eruptions end. Kilauea might yet have much to teach us that could help scientists and emergency officials estimate the length of an eruption somewhere that was causing severe problems for man…or at least provide us with a better idea of where to look for clues.
