A camera of the National Seismological Network (RSN) recorded a video of the eruption of the colossus that lasted around 14 minutes, according to the seismic record of the station.
Although the visibility was low due to cloudiness, the surveillance camera of the RSN closest to the active crater partially captured the process, during which incandescent blocks were projected towards the area next to the active crater,”
explained Mauricio Mora, expert of the entity.
The official said that due to weather conditions it is not possible to estimate the height of the eruptive column.
Neighbors from La Palmira, San Rafael de Irazú, Santa Rosa de Oreamuno, and El Guarumo reported ash fall and strong smell of sulfur.
