********************************************************************** From: Suzanne De Berge <suzanne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ********************************************************************** As an "other interested persons" list member, please forgive my non-technical comments. Last evening (August 8, 2007) Fuego produced a spectacular eruption as seen from Antigua. Apparently the resulting flow of lava, etc., was primarily down the south and west flanks, the opposite side from Antigua. There appeared to be some lava flow down the eastern flank, but it was difficult to be certain, as there were clouds obscuring the view. We first became aware of the eruption at around 6:45, but it may have been in progress for some time. It continued until at least 10 pm Guatemala time, but at that time either stopped or was too obscured by clouds for us to see continued activity. This morning there is a small constant plume of steam or ash. ============================================================== To unsubscribe from the volcano list, send the message: signoff volcano to: listserv@xxxxxxx, or write to: volcano-request@xxxxxxxx To contribute to the volcano list, send your message to: volcano@xxxxxxxx Please do not send attachments. ==============================================================
