Volcano News will be a little late tonight. There's some good stuff to look forward to, including that awaited update from OVISCORI-UNA and a monthly report on Pelee. BUT.... tonight, I have a dinner date.

Volcano News IS coming, but will (as is already apparent) be a little late. The GOOD news is that there's a lot to report, including the January checkup on Vesuvio, lots of reports from Japan, and OVISCORI-UNA finally remembered to add the 2026 bulletins to their index page.
