This series of photos were saved from the webcam at Chaiten volcano this morning found here http://tinyurl.com/855sqx
It started out as a normal day with Chaiten puffing water vapor. Just before 11am local time she began puffing more than water vapor. According to what I've been able to keep up with the caldera is mostly filled in again from the on going eruption. It's hard to get good, solid information because of this area being so isolated. I haven't seen or heard anything yet on whether this mornings activities were from a rockfall (looks to large to be that)or possibly the collapse or partial collapse of a dome. Whatever it was it put on quite a show this morning!
