Impressive! Thanks for that David.

Another fissure has opened up in Iceland at the Sundhnúksgígar crater sometime in the early hours this morning. Most of the live feeds are all fogged out right now but found this clip.

"The Krasheninnikov volcano on Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula has erupted for the first time in modern history, after a massive offshore earthquake triggered renewed volcanic activity in the Far East, local authorities have said.

The eruption occurred at 4:50am local time on Sunday, sending a 6,000-meter ash column into the air from the 1,856-meter-high peak, according to the Kamchatka Volcanic Eruption Response Team (KVERT).

“This is the first historic eruption of Krasheninnikov in 600 years,” Olga Girina, head of KVERT, told RIA Novosti. She said a lava dome was forming on the slope, with strong steam-gas emissions and a steady ash plume rising from the northern crater."

I am guessing it was a direct lightning strike obscured by the dense smoke. Still, spectacular sight whatever might have caused it. 

What a scene. 

That was pretty amazing, it had a double shot. Never seen anything like it. Thanks for the share 👍🏻

Static camera I'd say. Here is another angle. Camera alledged not to have survived in this case. 

The alert level was maintained at its highest after Semeru on Java island erupted 10 times on Wednesday, emitting massive plumes of ash and sending lava and rocks as far as 13 km (8.08 miles) down its slopes, officials said.

Well I hope this one calms down quickly. I will be a few miles from Semeru in just over a week. I'm in that area quite often and it puffs on a regular basis, but I'd prefer it to calm down a bit before I arrive !

Why? Is this where your missus is from?

Yes, we'll be visiting friends and family. Its an amazing place.

Folks living near volcanoes get to know the meaningful signs and necessary actions for survival! We lived on a volcano in Vanuatu in the 70s! 'Nuff said.

Yes indeed. When we were there in June there were a couple of small tremors. Hardly noticeable, but the locals said to watch out because Semeru is waking up.

Fingers crossed it does quieten down. 

Ethiopian volcano erupted for the first time in 12000 years!

"The rate of summit inflation increased yesterday and both vents had moderate-strong glow overnight with intermittent spattering from the north vent.  Models indicate he onset of episode 38 fountains will occur between December 6 and 8, with Saturday and Sunday, December 6-7, most likely."
