This week, an unusually strong earthquake swarm occurred at an Azores volcano which last erupted a little over 300 years ago. Meanwhile, in Japan, the alert level was raised at the Kirishima volcano, suggesting an increased risk that it may soon erupt. And, in Indonesia, it appears that a new batch of magma has intruded underneath the highly potentially dangerous Mount Awu volcano. This video will discuss these stories and list the 47 actively erupting volcanoes around the planet via the analysis of a geologist. This video's thumbnail image displays the erupting Santiaguito lava dome (Santa Maria volcano) in Guatemala.

Jimmy Buffett - Volcano

Now, I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows
Let me say now
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows

Ground she's moving under me
Tidal waves out on the sea
Sulphur smoke up in the sky
Pretty soon, we learn to fly

Let me hear ya now
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows

Now my girl quickly said to me
Man, you better watch your feet
Lava come down soft and hot
You better love-a me now or love-a me not

Let me say now
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows
Mr. Utley!

No time to count what I'm worth
'Cause I just left the planet Earth
Where I go, I hope there's rum
Not to worry man, soon come

Now I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows
One more now
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows

But I don't want to land in the New York City
I don't want to land in Mexico
I don't want want to land on no Three Mile Island
I don't want to see my skin aglow
I don't want to land in Commanchee sky park
Or in Nashville, Tennessee
I don't want to land in no San Juan airport
Or in Yukon Territory
I don't want to land in no San Diego
I don't want to land in no Buzzard's Bay
I don't want to land on no Ayatolah
I got nothing more to say

I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows
Just a one more
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a-gonna go when the volcano blows

Luckily, he was wasted away again when Montserrat went off.

Kirishima in my necks of the woods .

I’m not to impressed.
I live at the base of an active volcano
and within an hours drive to one that
is actively erupting.
Hawaii.

Unusually, Hawaii’s volcanoes often produce great lava flows but tend not to generate massive explosions and clouds of ash. In short, you have picked reasonably well-behaved volcanoes as neighbors.

Having experienced Mt. St. Helens I’ve gotten pickier!

You are quicker on the uptake than I seem to be. I have been through dozens of hurricanes but I remain a Florida resident.
