On April\u00a09,\u00a0at\u00a08:41 am,\u00a0an eruption column\u00a0(cloud of ash) began\u00a0rising above the La Soufri\u00e8re volcano located in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. This signalled that the\u00a0volcano moved to\u00a0an explosive phase following three months of\u00a0effusive\u00a0eruption, magma extrusion and more recently,\u00a0tremor and\u00a0volcano-tectonic (VT) seismic\u00a0activity.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Leading up to this morning\u2019s eruption, a scientific team at The University of the West Indies Seismic Research Centre (UWI-SRC) has been stationed on the island since December 2020 when activity was first detected. On April 8, the team recorded seven bands of tremor\u00a0at\u00a0two and a half hour intervals. A small volcano-tectonic swarm was also detected.\u00a0Elevated periods of steam and gas venting coincided with the tremor.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The UWI-SRC\u2019s scientific team on island, currently led by Geologist, Professor Richard Robertson immediately briefed Prime Minister of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Dr The Honourable Ralph Gonsalves and his cabinet, together with the country\u2019s National Emergency Management Organisation (NEMO). This triggered escalation of the alert level and subsequent evacuation for the declared red and orange zones on the islands.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

According to UWI-SRC Director, Dr. Erouscilla Joseph, \u201cThe Belmont Observatory in Saint Vincent\u00a0is manned 24 hours by UWI-SRC staff who are observing the volcano\u00a0and monitoring data, including seismicity, ground deformation as well as conducting ongoing field sampling of ash fall which will be sent for geochemical analysis. The team continues to provide support to NEMO and the Government of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Professor Robertson has reported that the height of this morning\u2019s eruption column is estimated at 10km and parts of the country as far south as Belmont and Barroullie have been affected by ash fall although most of the ash has gone to sea. He noted that once explosive eruption started, it is likely that others can occur and advised that the first one may not necessarily be the biggest. He also said areas to be affected by pyroclastic flow (fast-moving hot gas and volcanic material) and surges are those communities identified as red and orange zones; the rest of island (in yellow and green zones) may be impacted by ash depending on wind direction.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The scientific team has cautioned that neighbouring islands and regional aviation interests\u00a0can also expect to be impacted by volcanic ash. The volcanic ash\u00a0poses a significant threat to\u00a0flight safety.\u00a0It is estimated that phases of explosive eruption are likely to continue for days and possibly weeks.<\/p>
