How to use this page

Start with the images

Webcams help identify plumes, clouds, night-time glows and visibility. Bad weather can limit their usefulness.

Compare with tremor

Tremor in nm/s describes continuous ground motion measured by INGV stations. A striking image alone cannot establish the activity level.

Check sources and delays

EtnaMonitor processes public sources. For alerts, safety and operational decisions, always consult INGV and Civil Protection.

Important note: EtnaMonitor is not an official warning service. Webcams and live data are for information and education. INGV Osservatorio Etneo remains the official source for volcanic activity.
Frequently asked questions

What to know

Are these Mount Etna webcams really live?

The page shows the newest frames available from each source and reports whether the feed is online. Refresh intervals vary between cameras.

Why can I not see the summit?

Cloud, fog, ash, darkness, snow or a temporary camera outage may obscure the summit.

Does a red glow always mean an eruption?

No. Compare the image with tremor, thermal hotspots and official INGV communications before drawing conclusions.
