****************************************************************************************************
Dear all,
after two months of impressive build-up activity at the summit vents, including several short-lived lava overflows, a vent opened on the lower flank of the NE crater on the morning of 7 August, causing a massive surge of lava running down the Sciara.
Within short time, it reached the sea and established a sustained lava flow reaching the sea for the first time since 2007.
I visited the volcano during 8-12 August. Here are some pictures, I hope you find them interesting:
