Italy’s Mount Etna has started spewing lava in what is its second eruption of the year.
Giant fountains of lava could be seen sprouting from the volcano, located on the isle of Sicily, as far away as Catania, around 30 kilometres away, and the resort town of Taormina.

My Daughter was stationed at Sigonella (Naval Air Station Sigonella, just west of Catania) several years ago. I always worried about these reports and am thankful she isn’t stationed there now.

When I was on the USS Kennedy back in the Seventies, we transited the Straits of Messina, and the clouds reflected red from the caldera of Mount Etna...it was very cool to see.

In other volcanic news...
The “lava-to-ocean pipeline” in Hawaii collapsed in on itself last night.
Huge clouds of steam and volcanic gases, plus dozens of small lava jets shooting into the sky.
Amazingly, the park ranchers were allowing visitors to observe all this from about 1 mile away.
The gas-steam clouds were huge, and they were moving at about a 45 degree angle in the direction of the visitors, who were just filming and oooh-ing and standing there.
Me?
I remember when Mt. Saint Helens killed observers 5 miles away!
I would be sprinting in the opposite direction from that cloud in Hawaii!

My hunch is that those pesky Russians had something to do with this.
