That would put a small damper on Obama’s weekend jaunts to Matha’s vinyards.

I think you are referring to Cumbre Vieja on La Palma.

I thought that was Cumbre Vieja, not El Hierro.

Update 17/10 – 14:54 UTC : - The maritime current has changed direction and has pushed the volcanic material rich waters into the La Restinga bay (see image at right). - Everything is becoming big news in Spain, even when the impact is almost nihil. A volcanic earthquake of 2.5 (like we had several of them for many weeks is nothing special and does not deserve a big title. It makes local people even more nervous. - Scientists are convinced that the El Hierro volcano has a bigger magma chamber than the La Palma volcano (1971 La Palma eruption). The La Palma eruption went on for 24 days and released approx. 40 million cubic meters of magma. Scientist have now calculated that the amount of magma beneath the volcano should be probably (nobody is 100% sure of course as these calculations are theoretical) 50 millions cubic meters. The basis of their calculations is the deformation of the island related to the time.
