Intensifying spattering activity in the northern area led to a lava overflow down the upper Sciara del Fuoco at Stromboli volcano in the Aeolian Islands, Italy on Tuesday, December 24, 2024. INGV reported it was accompanied by heightened seismic activity and increased tremor amplitudes.

Stromboli’s North Crater experienced a significant increase in volcanic activity on November 6, 2024, marked by intensified spattering starting at 17:55 UTC. This activity led to a lava overflow that formed a steady flow down the Sciara del Fuoco, a prominent volcanic slope on the island’s northwest side, reaching the coastline.

Stromboli experienced a series of high-energy explosions on November 2 and 3, 2024, starting with an eruption in the northern crater at 14:20 UTC, followed by another in the same area and a third in the central-southern crater. These events caused hot material to slip down the Sciara del Fuoco and initiated an active lava flow from the north crater. 

Moderate strombolian activity at Stromboli’s North Crater area on October 8, 2024, led to lava overflow, which gradually diminished by the morning of October 9 before intensifying again.

The INGV-Etneo Observatory reported a sequence of volcanic events on Stromboli within an hour on Sunday, October 6, 2024, starting with a high-energy explosion from the North crater at 00:17 UTC. This eruption triggered a lava flow along the Sciara del Fuoco, with ongoing spattering activity observed as of Sunday morning.

A new effusive phase accompanied by intense spattering activity started at Stromboli volcano, Italy at 01:20 UTC on August 30, 2024. According to the INGV Etneo Observatory, a lava overflow was detected in the Sciara del Fuoco on August 30 by surveillance cameras. The overflow began at about 01:20 UTC and was fed by intense…
