Seismic unrest is being reported since last Saturday, February 10, 2018 with a new earthquake swarm starting in the southeast of the island of La Palma in Spain. Now, on February 12, 2018 more than 300 small earthquakes have rattled the mid-Atlantic Azores Islands overnight. Tourists and general population have been advised to move away from Pico Do Fogo volcano. Are volcanoes waking up in both locations?

Last Saturday, February 10, 2018, 23:23 TU, a new seismic series has started in the southeast of the island of La Palma in the Canaries, Spain. As of February 13, 2018, 06:45 TU, already 11 earthquakes with magnitudes between M2.2 and M2.6 had already hit and are now continuing at a depth of 30 km.
