Etna in activity, lava fountain from the Southeast crater

Yet another paroxysm on Etna. The city of Catania in fact woke up this morning with a new eruption of Etna and with very strong roars related to the paroxysm of the volcano. The National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology, Etneo Observatory, observed at dawn the gradual passage of Strombolian activity into a lava fountain from the Southeast crater. Based on the forecast model, the eruptive cloud produced by the ongoing activity disperses in a south-south-east direction while a lava overflow has also been observed in the south-west direction. Rain of volcanic ash has fallen in several municipalities in the hinterland.
