【速報！】硫黄島の噴火で新たな陸地を確認！ 2026年10月から始まった硫黄島の噴火により、硫黄島に新しい陸地ができたことが衛星写真によりわかりました！
新しくできた陸地の面積をザックリと図りますと0.49㎢で、東京ドーム１0個分ほど、西之島0.13個分になります。自然のパワーはすごいですね！
この後、新しい陸地が小さくなり消えてしまうか？または、大きくなるのかは今後の硫黄島次第ですね！ また続報が入りましたらお伝えします！

【速報】硫黄島沖で海底噴火が発生したと考えられます！
11月６日の硫黄島の衛星写真を見ると、硫黄島沖で大量の軽石が浮いている様子が確認できました！硫黄島の沖で海底噴火が発生したと考えられます！2023年には硫黄島沖の噴火により一時的に新しい島ができましたが、今回も同じように新しい島ができる可能性がありますね！
今後また新しい情報が入りましたらお伝えします！

Kīlauea has produced 56 lava fountains in just two years. How do USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory geologists measure heights so precisely? A mix of real‑time webcam estimates and detailed timelapse image analysis.
It’s careful, pixel‑by‑pixel science happening behind the scenes of every eruption.

Episode 56 of the ongoing Halemaʻumaʻu eruption began at 12:10 p.m. today.
Officials said the north vent fountains started at about 100 feet high and grew to about 650 feet within two hours. 🌋

Kīlauea Eruption Update — Episode 56 of lava fountaining!
Another lava fountaining episode at the summit of Kīlauea volcano on the Island of Hawaiʻi, began at 12:10 p.m. HST today, November 5, 2026, and is ongoing.
This is the 56th lava fountaining episode to occur in the summit caldera of Kīlauea, in Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park, since the eruption began on December 23, 2024. It occurs following days of intermittent spatter, low-dome fountains, and lava flows from the eruptive vent complex.
The lava fountains are currently relatively low, an estimated 300 feet high above the vent, but could grow taller. Winds in the eruption area are from the northeast, which suggests that volcanic gas emissions and volcanic material may be distributed to the southwest (primarily in a closed area of Hawaiʻi Volcanoes Nationa Park).
Fountaining episodes typically last 12 hours or less, but ash can remain in the air for longer depending on wind and weather conditions. Watch as this eruption develops on the three livestreaming cameras at Kīlauea summit, available on the USGS Youtube channel: m.youtube.com/@usgs/streams?…
Please stay aware of hazards and rely on official updates from USGS, National Weather Service, and Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park.

Indonesia: Mount Bromo in East Java erupted at 17:11 local time today, sending an ash column 500 metres above the summit.
The eruption lasted 46 seconds. Bromo remains at Alert Level 2.
People and visitors are warned to stay at least 1 km from the crater due to the risk of sudden phreatic eruptions.

I hope to goodness there weren't any hikers up there because these eruptions are unpredictable.

Drone footage of the ‘new’ mud volcano island in the Kai Islands of Indonesia!
I’ve been told that the locals call these suddenly appearing islands Pulau Timbal, which means ‘Floating Island’.
The pale outcrop is the original island.

Kīlauea Volcano Update 🌋 🚁
Scientists on a mapping overflight at the summit of Kīlauea in Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park the morning of November 4, 2026, observed roiling lava ponds in both of the eruptive vents.
⬆️ North vent's lava pond was about 100 feet (30 meters) across
↙️ Southwest vent's elongate lava pond was about 130 feet (40 meters) long by 65 feet (20 meters) wide and the surface was about 65 feet (20 meters) down within the vent
Since November 2, lava has overflowed from these vents intermittently, with strong glow lighting up the summit overnight. Volcano monitoring data indicates that episode 56 of lava fountaining is possible between now and November 8. No unusual activity has been detected outside of Kīlauea summit region.
