Cumbre Vieja Pendejo is Spanish for "oh shit it must be Hump Day!" Or possibly it translates to "oh shit that volcano is fixin' to blow!" Yeah and probably that last one. I've been watching ole Cumbre Vieja in the evening. It's dark and night time in la Palma so that makes watching the volcano much easier. You gets to see the hot lave blowing out the calderas. Yes I said calderas. There's more than just one. I'm almost positive that the volcanic vents number at least three and quite possibly four or maybe even more than that. So IF those vents collapse on one another and hook up to be just one really freaking large vent, well, look the fuck out then. La Palma won't need to evacuate anyone that's still on the island. Nope. Our trusty and damn twitchy Cumbre Vieja Pendejo will blow whomever might be left there clean out to open ocean. Talk about tsunami. People tsunami happening pretty dang soon and details will be handed out at eleven. Cumbre Vieja Pendejo is fascinating to watch. From a distance of course. I do love me some geology with emphasis on volcanology. We don't need no water...let the mofo blow. Machine art is spitting out the vent right about now.
