Ebeko (Paramushir Island): (10 Feb) Volcanic Ash Advisory Center Tokyo (VAAC) issued the following report: ERUPTION AT 20210210/2148Z FL050 EXTD S REPORTED OBS VA DTG:10/2200Z

Sakurajima (Kyushu, Japan): (11 Feb) Volcanic Ash Advisory Center Tokyo (VAAC) issued the following report: ERUPTED AT 20210211/0211Z FL080 STNR OBS VA DTG:11/0200Z

Raung (East Java): The explosive eruption of the volcano continues at elevated levels. A series of stronger explosions occurred during the past 2 days as emissions of steam and ash generated by the explosions reached up higher-than-usual altitude of approx. 18,000 ft (5,500 m) and extended to the E-SE.
Frequent steam glow continues to be active and visible from the summit crater at night. Glow suggests continued rise of fresh magma that could be rising inside the volcano’s conduits.

The warning bulletin states that ballistic impacts of volcanic bombs could affect an area of about 2 km distance from the main crater.

Lewotolo (Lesser Sunda Islands): (11 Feb) The explosive activity of the volcano continues at moderate levels characterized by occasional strombolian-to-vulcanian type eruptions.
According to PVMBG a two moderate explosions occurred at around 12:33 local time yesterday and at 07:35 local time today that generated 2,296 ft (700 m) high grey ash plumes. Volcanic ash is dispersed towards the E-SE.

Strong eruptive episode is now in progress at the volcano’s Mackenney summit crater that generated moderate-to-stronger explosions than the average size of explosions at the volcano at regular intervals of 3 to 5 per hour. Blocks were ejected as far as 200 m-300 m away from the crater.
Increasingly tall and dense ash plumes can be seen rising from the summit crater that rose to estimated 11,000 ft-12,450 ft (3,400 m-3,800 m) altitude and drifted into various directions, but most often W-SW direction.

Sangay (Ecuador): Explosive activity continues. Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) Washington warned about a volcanic ash plume that rose up to estimated 21000 ft (6400 m) altitude or flight level 210 .
The full report is as follows: CONS VA EMS. to 21000 ft (6400 m)

Reventador (Ecuador): (11 Feb) Explosive activity continues. Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) Washington warned about a volcanic ash plume that rose up to estimated 14000 ft (4300 m) altitude or flight level 140 .
The full report is as follows: PSBL CONTG VA EMS. to 14000 ft (4300 m)

Sabancaya (Peru): Explosive activity continues. Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) Buenos Aires warned about a volcanic ash plume that rose up to estimated 26000 ft (7900 m) altitude or flight level 260 .
The full report is as follows: INTERMITTENT EMISSION OF VA to 26000 ft (7900 m)
