According to NEMO, the La Soufriere volcano continues to erupt explosively and has now begun to generate pyroclastic density currents. Explosions and accompanying ashfall, of similar or larger magnitude, are likely to continue to occur over the next few days.

NEMO also stated that according to scientists at the UWI Seismic Research Centre “the domes have already been destroyed and ejected. The eruption cloud went into the atmosphere and then collapsed causing pyroclastic density currents (PDCs).” So, what we had is an eruption column collapse.”
