La Palma Volcano Eruption Update; Volcanic Smoke Reaches United Kingdom, Activity Increases

The La Palma / Cumbre Vieja eruption is now in its 62nd day. Today's main news is that the number of earthquakes reached an all time high on November 17th, which occurred alongside an increase in activity. As more lava reached the ocean, a dust devil occurred, providing a fascinating case study of how hot air can generate tornadic features. Due to increased activity, volcanic smoke reached the United Kingdom and Ireland, causing poor air quality there. This video will discuss what is likely to happen next as this Spanish Canary Island volcano.
