UPDATE: Canary Island Swarm Reaches 4.0+ Magnitudes
Mitch Batros - Earth Changes Media
Today's event on the Canary Islands would warrant a shift in alert status. There is an ongoing swarm of earthquakes on the Canary Island of El Hierro. As of today, magnitudes have reached 4.0 - 4.4. As a result, this should raise the alert level to "code red" and they will most likely evacuate the entire Island.
When volcanic seismic magnitudes reach this threshold of 4.0+, it suggests an escalation of magma with the potential of eruption. Furthermore, in the case of the Canary Islands, the real danger relates to a massive landslide into the Atlantic causing a mega-tsunami. This has historically occurred three times in the last 50,000 years.
