Breaking: Earthquakes indicate Chaiten Eruption about to Intensify
There have been 3 earthquakes in the last few hours in the same area as quakes that preceded the original eruption. It's likely the Chaiten eruption is about to intensify. Typically a plinian eruption, which this is, ends in a final large eruptive event. This eruption is already VEI5 and may well end up a VEI6 or larger, making it the largest volcanic eruption since Krakatoa. Nothing on Google news, so this is a Burg exclusive.
