Scientists predict longest eruption in 500 years
The high levels of emission of
sulfur dioxide
together with the
appearance of new nozzles
and other
pouring
, the
rebound in tremor and seismicity
make scientists think that an end is not in sight.

longest in the last 500 years on La Palma
, Francisco Prieto, spokesman for the Steering Committee of the Plan of Canary Volcanic Emergencies (
Pevolca

"Unfortunately, the forecast is that the eruption will not end in the short term,"
added Prieto, who said that the crisis committee is attentive to the evolution of the new laundry that, for the moment, runs close to the one so far located more to the north.
