Vigorous spattering from the North Crater area continues even after cessation of the effusive activity (image: INGV)
The INGV volcano observatory reported that the recent effusive eruption at the volcano, starting two days ago, ceased some time during yesterday.
The short-term lava flow began to diminish rapidly over the past 24 hours and is currently in the phase of crystallization (cooling phase), although some areas remain still hot. This might be caused by an accumulation of lava material.
Albeit the effusive activity ended, the intense spattering continues to be active from the North crater area.
The volcanic tremor started to fluctuate between medium-high values after about 17:00 local time yesterday but later on, decreased to average medium-low values.
