SURABAYA - De Mount Bromo volcano in East Java province has shown increased activity again. In the last 24 hours, the volcano produced a total of 69 tremors. Between midnight and 06:00 local time this morning, 26 tremors were recorded. The amplitude of the tremors is still limited to five millimeters however.
The weather around the volcano is not very good at the moment. The peak of the volcano is covered in a small ash cloud, which causes visual observation to be almost impossible. The tremors measured could very well be a precursor to an eruption of the volcano. The volcano does not have a history of explosive eruptions like Mount Merapi however.
The Center for Volcanology and Disaster Management PVMBG will pick up some of the measuring equipment on the mountain later today to see whether the caldera of the volcano is indeed being bloated, as is suspected now. To get clarity it was decided that a part of the instruments would be picked up for further investigation. Until now, the suspicions could not be confirmed nor rejected.
