Beautiful International Day of Volcanoes to all, with some recent news.
Popocatepetl has experienced 29 exhalations during the past 24 hours, probably accompanied by gas and some ashes, plumes to 400 to 500 meters above the summit, largely obscured by intense cloud cover.
This weather also prevented the presence or no of a new dome during an overflight the April 8 by Federal Police, Cenapred and Unam.

For the second consecutive day, this April 9 at 4:57 local, the monitoring stations of Nevados de Chillan recorded an explosion; it was accompanied by incandescence and ejection of high temperature pyroclastic materials deposited around the crater Nicanor, and an LP seismic signal in relation to the dynamics of the internal fluids.
The Sernageomin links this episode to the partial destruction of the intracratal dome, in the current Naranjo alert level standards. (https://twitter.com/i/status/1115568303924289536)
