Another sequence of intense spattering activity occurred from the North crater area this morning.
At about 04:30 UTC, a new small lava formation appeared to overflow the crater terrace, but has been only restricted to the upper Sciara del Fuoco. The phenomenon has been observed through the surveillance camera as seen in the attached image.
Again, seismic recordings detected no significant values of tremor, it had remained at low-to-medium levels.
The short-lived episode of increased spattering has took place a second time within four days span.
