Russian space agency Roscosmos has released a remarkable, if slightly ominous-looking, satellite image of Peru's Ubinas volcano, taken as it spewed an enormous column of grey ash into the sky.

Snapped from the Resurs-P satellite at a height of thousands of kilometers, the ominous image makes it appear as though a spooky skull is spilling a huge plume of ash out of its mouth into the Peruvian countryside.

The volcano, which is located in the Moquegua region of southern Peru, began erupting last Thursday, sending a pillar of ash 12km into the air. A state of emergency was declared and thousands of people were ordered to evacuate as ash rained down on hundreds of schools and health centers.

Ubinas has now ceased erupting but the most recent report from the Geophysical Institute of Peru (IGP) said another eruption on Wednesday couldn't be ruled out.

in East Java erupted on Friday evening, coupled with cold lava flows owing to rains.

The 2,329-meter-high volcano erupted for a duration of some seven minutes from 4:37 p.m. local time, but the height of the ash column was not observed, Chief of the Volcano Mitigation Section of the Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (PVMBG) Hendra Gunawan remarked on Friday night.

The seismogram recorded the eruption at a maximum amplitude of 37 millimeters, lasting for a duration of some 14 seconds, he noted.

Italy's Mount Etna began spewing hot ash and lava overnight, forcing authorities to close two airports in eastern Sicily. Experts detected "lively spattering" at the volcano last month.

Europe's biggest active volcano, Mount Etna, erupted early Saturday with fiery explosions and lava flows, the Italian National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) said.

Plumes of ash prompted authorities on the island of Sicily to close the Fontanarossa and Comiso Airports in the city of Catania, local media reported.

La Repubblica newspaper said a Ryanair flight from Rome was diverted to Palermo on Friday night, while several flights were delayed from landing or taking off on Saturday.

Peru's president Martin Vizcarra described it as "a major event unlike any we have had in recent years."

Ash from the eruption has reached as far as Bolivia - about 780 kilometres away.

The 5672-metre volcano is Peru's most active.

It is apparent that the feedback loop of volcanic ash in Earth's atmosphere is beginning to cool areas of the planet in the wrong season along with larger hail formation. The recent VEI 4 at Ulwun in Papua New Guinea and 20+ other eruptions of ash to 50,000 ft+ are having a cumulative effect. The Grand Solar Minimum - Cosmic Ray Effect are now in play. The cooling has begun in earnest.

Climate Revolution is a 'Must Read' for understanding our Sun driven climate as we progress deeper into the new Eddy Grand Solar Minimum. Weather extremes leading to Global food scarcity and high food prices are here now, and this book describes the expected changes, how to survive & thrive during future challenging times with practical preparations.


Comment: With the wandering poles, a significant weakening of Earth's magnetic field and cosmic rays rising for the fourth consecutive year, scientists are predicting that a geomagnetic shift is in process. At the same time we're seeing more extreme weather events, as well as an overall drop in temperatures around the globe, incredible hail storms, along with a variety of other unusual phenomena.

mud volcano
A mud volcano in Pingtung County erupted yesterday, July 8, in a field adjacent to the site of the last eruption last year.

Fortunately for the affected farmer, the field had already been harvested, but the Wandan Township government urgently dispatched an excavator to divert mud away from neighboring cropland.

Mud spewed out to a height of over one meter during yesterday's eruption.

Farmers expressed the hope that the government would set up a system of subsidies for farmers affected by the eruptions. The mud that accumulated during last year's eruption had still not been cleared, and now the adjacent field is being inundated with a mud flow.

Eyewitnesses in nearby Sicily, as well as on the mainland, have been posting photos and videos of the eruption and aftermath on Twitter.
