How to interpret Etna's status today

Tremor

Volcanic tremor measures continuous ground vibration. Rapid increases or sustained values may indicate greater internal activity.

Hotspot

NASA FIRMS hotspots indicate satellite thermal anomalies. They help identify lava flows or surface heat, with possible delays.

Webcams and earthquakes

Live images and local seismicity help put the signal in context but do not replace official bulletins and statements.

Important note: This page does not independently declare an official eruption. EtnaMonitor aggregates and processes public data for information. For alerts, safety and operational decisions, consult INGV, Osservatorio Etneo and Civil Protection.
Frequently asked questions

What to know

Does high volcanic tremor mean Etna is erupting?

Not necessarily. High tremor is an important signal but must be assessed with visual, thermal and official observations.

Is it safe to visit Catania during an Etna eruption?

Conditions depend on the event, wind and official restrictions. Follow local authorities for safety advice.

Can an Etna eruption cancel flights?

Ash can cause delays, diversions or closures, but each operational decision is made by aviation authorities, the airport and airlines.

There is ash aloft: check whether it affects you

Checking your town and looking up your flight are free. Winds aloft describe how the cloud travels, not ashfall on the ground.
