BOOM! Mexican colossus Popocatepetl erupting ash and smoke hundreds of meters into the sky

Spectacular footage of one of Mexico’s most active volcano Popocatepetl erupting has been sent to me from Francis. The colossus was filmed belching hot ash and smoke hundreds of meters into the Mexican sky yesterday by Web Cams De Mexico.

Volcano activity has been rather subdued recently however another one of Mexico’s most active volcanoes, the Colima ejected a new lava flow only this week.

We have to go back to September 1^st   this year when Popocatepetl last erupted which caused a mag 3 quake; Popocatepetl is about 43 miles southeast of Mexico City.
