La Réunion , Piton de la Fournaise ( Update 1 p.m.) :
Activity bulletin for Friday, July 3, 2020 at 2:30 p.m. (local time)
Alert level: Alert 1
The seismic crisis started on July 3, 2020 at 07:20 local time, ended around 08:00 (local time). This episode was accompanied by surface deformations which remained extremely weak and localized at the top of Piton de la Fournaise. Since then, no resumption of seismic activity or deformation has been observed.
Several hours without any activity being observed, testify to the in-depth halt of the magma in the building.
However, given the resumption of inflation since June 16, a medium-term eruption cannot be ruled out.
