Turrialba and Poás Volcanoes In Simultaneous Eruptions

The Turrialba and Poás volcanoes put on a simultaneous show early Tuesday morning when, in almost concerted action, both spewed out smoke during an eruption.

According to experts, the eruptions are no cause for alarm, as they are normal for an active volcano.

The presence of smoke from the cone of the volcanoes is mainly due to clear morning skies and no wind, making the normal emanation from the volcanoes unusual.

The Observatorio Vulcanológico y Sismológico de Costa Rica (OVSICORI) sent a team of experts to evaluate the condition, ruling out any presence of ash or lava in the eruption.
