Yep still a major eruption...
22-23 fissures... and they had a geothermal plant that now has wells that had to be covered to prevent interaction with explosive gases... anyway, one of the wells is covered in lava...
What's amazing is that a lot of people affected don't really seem as upset as you'd expect. Yes, unhappy, but they do seem to respect that nature does as it pleases and doesn't exactly ask for permission... and yes, respect for the volcano Goddess Pele has some to do with it, but because it's been erupting since the 80's, it's not much of a surprise...
I don't have time to grab video or posts, but look it up... the imagery is truly amazing. Let's just hope it doesn't lead to something like Fukushima with the geothermal plant...
