Sporadic emissions of steam and gases (52 tonnes on today) continue at the summit vent that rose to estimated 6 km altitude and drifted NW. No explosive eruption was detected during this period.
Daily volcanic tremor has rapidly decreased to average 50 min / day during the past 2 weeks and remains deeply under the average-than-usual levels (approx. 1000 min / day) confirming that the activity of the volcano continues at reduced levels.
