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.
