Report for the period 6 p.m. 22 May
to 6 p.m. 23 May 1998


Volcanic activity has remained at a low level today. Between 4 p.m. yesterday and 4 p.m. today 6 volcano-tectonic earthquakes, one rockfall signal, and one hybrid earthquake were recorded.

A group of MVO scientists visited the deposits of the Boxing Day collapse today to try and further our understanding of that event.

Dust levels were low at all sites today.

Residents are reminded that the volcano remains in a potentially active state, and that they should continue listening to Radio Montserrat in case there are sudden changes.
