As far as the injection of sulphates into the strat of the mid lat.s it's worth considering where most of the global industry producing Sulphates is located? |

Perhaps there is something in the collapse of the Soviet union,also the reduction of coal burning, and reduction of cold easterlies?

I wasn't expecting the snow scene as well, but it sets off the eruption perfectly |
It has been observed that less snow falls here than any other place of equal extent in the kingdom, occasioned by the shelter of the hills and the warmth of the sea breezes - Alexander Hay, Guide to Chichester, 1805 |

Thank you DEW and Lionel I love a good eruption as long as I am not next to the vents. Still waiting for Stromboli to begin a nighttime show again. Nick

Stromboli is reasonably active this evening. Look up Stromboli webcam and watch some powerful pulses of ash shoot up.

A lot of late deep snow on Etna this morning and active too. Well it had quite a puff of brown ashy stuff a minute ago. Melts fast though with the strong sun I think.

RogerP West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire No county (Lincolnshire) has better churches and worse houses. The poorer sort of people wash their clothes with hog's dung, and burn dried cow's dung for want of better fuel; whence comes the Lincolnshire proverb: "Where the hogs shite soap and the cows shite fire".

Channel 5 has programme on the threat that Vesuvius poses to Naples this evening at 2100. Not sure whether it has anything new, though. |

Slightly off topic but Pompeii by Robert Harris is a great read. He manages to convey the great heat of that summer and how the eruption progressed and what it would have been like to have experienced such an event.

I was in Naples last Monday and visited Pompeii. Astonishing place. My understanding (and I also watched a documentary a few months/a year ago) is that the whole Bay of Naples area is a giant Caldera, and the entire area has lifted 2m in the past few years as the magma chamber builds (IIRC, it had only risen 2m in the preceding 60 years) Oh, and I was on Sicily on Wednesday, a few days before Etna cranked the pyrotechnics back up. |
