A large magmatic eruption is taking place at the volcano right now. Based on satellite imagery, VAAC Darwin spotted a high-level ash and SO2 plume reaching 47,000 ft (15 km) altitude moving WNW.
A strong thermal hot spot is detected as well. Both the webcam on Anak Krakatau Island and from the coast (in 40 km distance) show strong lava fountaining from the volcano.
This seems to be the strongest eruptive phase since the violent phreatomagmatic activity following the partial collapse of the volcano on 22 Dec 2018, which had triggered a deadly tsunami that killed hundreds of people on Java's west coast.
Well well well ... what’s next?
It’s either because of “Climate Change” or it’s President Trumps’s fault. ;)

If they could blame Trump it would be all over the press. As it is hardly a peep about this in the American media.
Now what!? What’s next, the Yellowstone Caldera starts erupting?
