Authorities have issued a “yellow alert” for a region in central Colombia following minor seismic activity in one of the country’s most active volcanoes.
At 2:29 AM on Sunday morning, a 2.9 magnitude earthquake hit the Nevado del Ruiz volcano, according to the Volcanological and Seismological Observatory in the nearby city of Manizales. The yellow alert signifies that affected areas in the bordering states of Tolima and Caldas should remain vigilant in the face of potentially shifting volcanic activity brought on by the earthquake.
Authorities have good reason for caution.
At 17,457 feet tall, the Nevado del Ruiz is one of Colombia’s most hulking volcanoes, with an eruptive history stretching back 1.8 billion years. The volcano is characterized by pyroclastic flows that cause mudslides, or lahars.
In 1985, one such lahar, the biggest on record, made international headlines, burying at least three surrounding towns and killing 25,000 people.
