La Palma Volcano Eruption Update; Eruption Intensity Decreases, Continuing Lava Fountain

The La Palma / Cumbre Vieja eruption is now in its 49th day. Today's main news is that the eruption intensity has now decreased, leading to smaller lava fountains. Now, beautiful yellow sulfur crystals are visible on the main volcanic cone. Additionally, earthquake activity has also declined, and no more magnitude 5 earthquakes have occurred. Thus, the amount of deep movement of new magma underneath the volcano might be decreasing. This video will discuss what is likely to happen next as this Spanish Canary Island volcano.
