Villarica Developments
The volcano's activity is characterized by near-frequent strong eruptive episodes (so-called paroxysm) over the past few days.
Bursting lava fountaining could be seen from the two-vent summit crater, surpassing perhaps a few 100 meters height.
The Volcanic Alert Level remains at Yellow with 500 meters exclusion zone around the main crater in place.
Intense strombolian activity returned to the main crater a few days ago after roughly one-month relative calm period.

Update Mar29:
The activity remains essentially unchanged at elevated levels.
Another lava-fountaining episode (classified as paroxysm) occurred from the two-vent summit crater on the night of 26 March. The height exceeded by lava jets surpassed 100 meters, approx. 120 meters in maximum.
According to the Proyecto Observación Villarrica (POVI), the active summit vents diameter finds measured to be about 13 meters.
The Volcanic Alert Level remains at Yellow with 500 meters exclusion zone around the main crater in place.
