Thousands to be evacuated as Indonesian volcano threatens to erupt

Re: Thousands to be evacuated as Indonesian volcano threatens to erupt

Alert level raised for Anak Krakatau


Yuli Tri Suwarni, The Jakarta Post, Bandung

Authorities have responded to a rise in activity on Mount Anak Krakatau in the Sunda Strait by placing the volcano on the second highest alert.

The Bandung-based Volcanology and Geology Disaster Mitigation Center raised the alert status of Mount Anak Krakatau on Friday, making it the fourth volcano in the country to have its status raised in recent weeks.

The volcano was formed in the massive Krakatau eruption in 1883, which killed tens of thousands of people and was the largest explosion in recorded history.

Disaster center head Surono said that according to observations from the Kalianda volcano monitoring post in South Lampung and a monitoring post in Psauran, in Serang regency, the volcano had been spewing smoke since Oct. 23.

He said further observation confirmed there had been eruption.

"But there is no need to worry about Mount Anak Krakatau's activity. It has a short (eruption) sequence, which is around four years.

"Since it erupts so many times, it does not reserve enough energy to trigger a massive eruption. Fears of a tsunami can also be dismissed," Surono said in Bandung, West Java, on Saturday.

There are now three volcanoes around the country on the second highest alert status, as well as one on the highest alert.

Mount Soputan and Mount Karangetan, both in North Sulawesi, are on the same status as Anak Krakatau
.

Mount Kelud in East Java is on top alert status, meaning an eruption is imminent.

The 305-meter high Mount Anak Krakatau is located in South Lampung regency in Lampung province.

Surono said authorities had looked at the data and determined there was no danger of an eruption by Anak Krakatau large enough to create a tsunami.

He said his office had recommended the Lampung and Banten administrations warn fishermen, residents and tourists to stay at least three kilometers from the volcano.

"We want them to follow the order without believing the rumors of a tsunami," Surono said.

Meanwhile, Mount Soputan in Tombatu district in South Minahasa regency remains on the second highest alert even though it is spewing smoke about 200 meters into the air.

"We are keeping Soputan on second highest alert status since the eruption is taking place far from people's homes and is not too dangerous. There is no need for people to panic, but they should listen to instructions from officials," Surono said.

The center has ordered people to stay at least six kilometers from the crater of the volcano, he said.

He said the center would evaluate Mount Kelud's status within the next three or four days.

"But the evaluation does not mean we will downgrade the volcano's status. Our team still work on the data to produce the best solution for everyone
."

There are also nine volcanoes in the country on third highest alert status.

They are Mount Kerinci in Jambi province; Mount Gamkonora on Halmahera Island in Maluku; Mount Dukono and Mount Ibu in North Maku; Mount Merapi in Yogyakarta; Mount Semeru in East Java; Mount Talang in Solok regency, West Sumatra; Mount Lokon in North Sulawesi; and Mount Papandayan in Garut, West Java.

Mt. Kelud activity spikes, prompting thousands of evacuations

MOUNT KELUD, East Java (AP): Activity spiked at one of Indonesia's most deadly volcanos Thursday, prompting thousands of mountainside residents to be evacuated, a government official said.

Hundreds of deep volcanic tremors shook Mt. Kelud - tenfold the normal number - and its crater lake was the hottest since the mountain was put on high alert last month, said Surono, a senior government volcanologist who goes by a single name.

"Kelud is entering its critical phase," Surono said in a telephone interview, indicating that an eruption could occur at any time.

In 1990, Mt. Kelud killed more than 30 people and injured hundreds. In 1919, a powerful explosion that could be heard hundreds of kilometers away destroyed dozens of villages and killed at least 5,160.

On Thursday, police went door-to-door and used megaphones to order villagers to flee to tent camps. Authorities ordered more than 100,000 people to leave vulnerable areas two weeks ago, but many disobeyed the instruction or had returned home to tend to crops andfarm animals.(***)

Indonesian volcano critical, may erupt: scientist

Fri Nov 2, 2007

By Telly Nathalia

JAKARTA (Reuters) - Indonesia's Mount Kelud volcano in East Java is in a critical phase and could erupt any time after being shaken by more than 1,000 tremors over the last two days, the country's top volcano expert said on Friday.

An estimated 350,000 people live within 10 km (6 miles) of the volcano and when it last erupted in 1990 at least 30 people were killed.

Authorities raised the alert at Mount Kelud, one of Indonesia's deadliest volcanoes, to maximum two weeks ago amid signs of an imminent eruption.

"Kelud is in a critical phase. It could erupt now," Surono, head of Indonesia's centre for Vulcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation, told Reuters by telephone from the capital Jakarta.

Another official near the site said there had been more than 600 tremors on Thursday and hundreds more overnight.

"Tremors stopped for a moment but they have started again. From midnight until 6 a.m. we recorded 559 tremors," said Umar Rosadi, a vulcanologist at a monitoring post near Kelud.

"We continue to monitor the activity, but we can't tell when an eruption will happen."

He said magma was 700 meters (2,296 feet) below the crater.

In 1919, about 5,000 died as Kelud ejected scalding water from its crater lake.

After the alert was first raised recently, more than 100,000 people were ordered to evacuate from around the volcano, 675 km (420 miles) east of the capital Jakarta but only 90 km (55 miles) southwest of Indonesia's second-largest city of Surabaya.

Thousands have left from a 10-km (6-mile) zone around Kelud, but many had returned home, fearing for the safety of their possessions.

Some residents living on the slopes of the volcano have refused to leave, saying they know how to take care of themselves in the event of an eruption.

Their representatives have signed an agreement with officials stating that they will not hold the government responsible should anything happen to them.

In recent weeks, there have been periods of intense seismic activity at the volcano followed by calm, although the high temperature of the crater lake and other observations have led experts to keep the alert status at maximum.

On October 19, there was a surge in tremors at Kelud, but the activity later subsided and there was no eruption.

Some scientists have suggested that hardened larva from previous eruptions could be blocking the release of magma, but warn that it could burst out when the energy has built up enough.

Indonesia has faced a series of deadly natural disasters in recent years and has the highest number of active volcanoes of any country. It sits on a belt of intense volcanic and seismic activity know as the "Pacific Ring of Fire."

Indonesian officials were also closely monitoring three other volcanoes for increased activity.

The MOUNTAIN KELUD entered the FOURTH PHASE CRISIS

The Activity of the Kelud Mountain continued to increase.

Today, the very significant increase made the Pelaksana Unit the Control of the local Disaster and police apparatus again evacuated several residents who did not yet want to flee.

Is based on the report on the Team of the Observer of the Kelud Mountain, today the mountain entered the fourth phase crisis.

The temperature of crater water in the depth 15 metre from the surface has achieved 41 Celsius levels or one level was higher than the temperature of water when the Kelud Mountain exploded in 1990.

Whereas the temperature of the surface of water achieved 39.6 Celsius levels.

For the tremor earthquake and volcanic up until this afternoon still could not be counted because of continuing to experience the sharp increase.
Moreover, the eruption has happened, but did not yet erupt.

The increase in this activity forced Satlak Penanggulangan of the Disaster and police apparatus again evacuated several residents who still not have wanted to flee.

The roads has also been vacated, especially in the main gate entered Kelud. This so that the team of vulcanology in the Kelud Mountain is not hindered escaped when the Kelud Mountain exploded.

Re: Thousands to be evacuated as Indonesian volcano threatens to erupt

Mt. Kelud close to blowing its top: scientists

MOUNT KELUD, East Java(AP): Scientists said tremors rocking a deadly Indonesian volcano Friday were signs a powerful eruption could be imminent, while some nearby villagers were staying put hoping that if they kept quiet the mountain would not blow.

The intensity and frequency of the tremors at Mount Kelud already exceed those in the days preceding the last time its blew its top in 1990, indicating an underground reservoir of magma is poised to break the surface of a lake at its crater.

"The activity of volcanic tremor is increasing, but the eruption has not happened yet," said Umar Rosadi, part of a team of 16 scientists monitoring the peak in the heart of densely populated Java island. "It is strange, but that is the nature of the volcano."

More than 100,000 people living in areas considered to be at risk were ordered from their homes when the peak was put at its highest alert level more than two weeks ago, but most never left or have since returned to their homes, officials say.

Some of those who stayed behind were asked to sign a statement saying they would not seek compensation funds if they were injured or lost family members due to an eruption, said local community leader chief Susiadi, who goes by a single name.

Villager Sugeng Ruwanto said many of his fellow villagers believed a local myth stating that if they stayed at home without switching indoor lights on or speaking in a loud voice then the mountain would not erupt.

Along with hundreds of other people, Ruwanto remained in Anyar village, some 5 kilometers from the crater of Kelud.

In 1990, Mount Kelud killed more than 30 people and injured hundreds. In 1919, a massive explosion at Kelud that could be heard hundreds of kilometers away destroyed dozens of villages and killed at least 5,160.

Scientists fear that if the magma hits the water inside the crater lake, a giant explosion could occur, sending water, mud and ash careering down the side of the 1,731-meter mountain.

KELUD ciritical, several residents did not yet want to flee.

Metrotvnews.com, Kediri: the Activity of the Kelud Mountain in Kediri, East Java, as far as Jum'at (2/11) tonight, still were critical.
Various efforts continued was done by apparatus to anticipate if the Kelud Mountain really exploded.

Anticipation was carried out in several points.
Tonight, the atmosphere in the Sugihwaras Village, Kecamatan Ngancar, Kediri, the closest territory with the Kelud crater, quiet.
Was different from this afternoon.

In this village of Jum'at the afternoon could be influenced by the panic.
That happened after the temperature of the crater and the activity kegempaan Kelud experienced the extraordinary increase.

Tonight, that was visible only an amount of TNI apparatus and Republic of
Indonesia State Police that was on the alert around the area that became the main gate entered the area of the Kelud danger.

The Rescue Departemen Sosial team also again preparing in several points, especially in the Sugihwaras Village, to anticipate if the Kelud Mountain exploded.

Strangely, despite Kelud increasingly critical, still had several residents, especially the man, who did not yet want to flee.

They claimed just will flee if the Keluid Mountain really exploded.
As a result, several trucks for the evacuation of the resident still were alerted in this location.


The main gate to the Kelud crater that this afternoon could be opened to facilitate the rescue of the Team of Vulcanology and Mitigasi Bencana tonight again was closed so that the resident did not approach, in fact entered the Kelud dangerous region.

The temperature in the surface of the crater of the Kelud Mountain still was high.

In the surface of his temperature 40.4 derajad Celcius, 41 derajad Celcius in the depth 10 metre and 42.8 derajad Celcius in kecalaman 15 metre.

The activity of the tremor earthquake since striking 11,07 WIB earlier up to now was still continuing to happen to the maximal amplitude 0,5-16 millimetre.

The critical Kelud condition this time was the fourth condition.

However, that happened at this time was that was biggest year round 2007.

Nevertheless, although the tremor earthquake has happened more than seven hours, the Kelud Mountain has not still exploded.

This condition Be Different From in 1990.

At that time the tremor earthquake happened for 30 minutes and volcanic shallow less than 300 times, the Kelud Mountain has spewed out the eruption.

<!--articleDetails--><BOD>BLITAR: Indonesian officials plan to set up cinema screens and invite pop singers to perform at evacuation shelters near a threatening volcano in an effort to move people to safety.
The historically deadly Mount Kelut, in East Java, was put on red alert more than two weeks ago, but hundreds of tremors shook the volcano on Thursday after days of calm, heightening fears of an imminent eruption. Despite efforts to evacuate all residents within a 10-kilometre danger zone around the crater, many have returned home or refused to leave, leaving officials concerned for their safety.
"We will set up an outdoor cinema at several shelters in Blitar district in order to attract people to evacuate," said Kamtono, an official from one of the two districts that would be affected by the volcano blowing.
"We are having big difficulties asking people to evacuate," he said. "They don't want to leave their livestock untended in the village and they also still believe the elderly people who are saying that Kelut won't erupt soon."
Kamtono said that some shelters would also be set up with stages where singers of dangdut - a genre of Indonesian pop music - would entertain people.
A scientist monitoring Kelut said that tremors on Thursday night showed that magma pressure was still rising.
"We recorded 599 shallow tremors inside the volcano from midnight till 6am," the scientist, Hendrasto, said.
He said the increasing seismic activity should have already triggered an eruption. "It's really confusing," he said of the volcano's behaviour.
Indonesia sits on the so-called Pacific Ring of Fire, where several continental plates collide, causing frequent seismic and volcanic activity.
The archipelago nation has 129 active volcanoes, two of which also began ominously spewing smoke last week. Anak Krakatau, the offspring of infamous Krakatau off Sumatra, has been disgorging smoke and ash since October 23.
Mount Soputan, located in a sparsely populated area on Sulawesi, has largely calmed after it began spewing smoke and lava last week.:tiphat: http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/new...rs-from-volcano/2007/11/02/1193619145406.html
 
Re: Thousands to be evacuated as Indonesian volcano threatens to erupt

This is a typical Javanese story. Java is full of stories on omens, mysterious powers and mysterious events.

Some time ago a man received a mysterious message on the date of eruption of Mt. Kelud, it should be on day 1 or 2, month not specified.

The same man had dreams some time before the previous eruptions of Mt. Kelud.

Mount Kelud in Critical Condition


Proof of the mystery voice received by Mbah Marjuni?



Budi Sugiharto - DetikSurabaya

Kediri - Still remembered Mbah Marjuni? One of the residents who was put in charge in Kebonrojo Kecamatan Kepung Kediri this heard the mystery voice that was believed in by Kelud Mountain time exploding.

The voice with the Javanese accent that emerged in front of his house on Sunday the dawn (21/10/2007) that he sounded\Most nek ra the date siji nggih the date loro (If not the date of one yes the date two-red)\.
It was unclear that the intention the short message without being known by his origin.

However for Mbah Marjuni and other villagers that heard the voice disappearing that immediately connected if the Kelud Mountain will explode in the date 1 or 2, but whether the how-many month.

The voice canned be heard clear on Mbah Marjuni ears that just entered his house.

He could be startled and looked for the voice origin. However himself did not find.

Moreover attracted him, this invisible voice was also heard by several residents that was guarding poskamling in front of the Mbah Marjuni house at that time.

One of them that went along heard was the Village Head Kebonrejo Lugito.
At that time Lugito interpreted if the message as the sign would the arrival of the rainy season like that dinanti-wait for villagers.

Must be known by Mbah Marjuni for the local community was believed always received the invisible sign if Kelud exploded.

In 1990, Mbah Marjuni was visited by 3 men with black cloak that informed if the Kelud Mountain will have a party. The resident was asked for put on coconut leaf in front of their respective house. And in 1966 he received the similar dream.

One of the relatives Mbah Marjuni, Mr Wit when being contacted detiksurabaya.com, claimed startled if today was time that was mentioned in the mystery voice.

\OK.. yes.. yesterday would the date 2.

And true also had the increase in the activity of the Mountain Kelud,\said Mr Wit half did not believe through his cellular phone, on Saturday (3/11/2007).

However he hoped, if the Kelud Mountain did not explode.
\but the date 1 or 2 that was not his month.Who knew next month.
There is none that knows,\he said.

Re: Thousands to be evacuated as Indonesian volcano threatens to erupt

I don't know much about volcanos. How bad can this one blow? I can see where this guy might be getting omens; it's really kind of nerve-wracking watching it shake, temp raising and just waiting for something to happen.
 
Re: Thousands to be evacuated as Indonesian volcano threatens to erupt

3 November 2007 17:20 (GMT+7) - According to data from an observation post, the Mount Kelud volcano is in eruption. A few hours ago, tremors started to pick up once again, but now they broke the maximum level, which means there is an active eruption. There is no sign yet of ash clouds or lava showing up, but that might be just a matter of time. The crater is filled with a big lake and the weather around the volcano is bad as well.:yinyang:
<!-- 4,295 //-->? 03-11-20073 November 2007 18:10 (GMT+7) - Measuring instruments placed on the edge of the crater are still functioning, indicating that the main part of the eruption has not started yet. The really bad weather around the volcano fuels fears that a posible lahar will be much bigger because of all the water already available. Several roads towards the west of the volcano have actually been closed because of flooding. A cold mud and small rocks - not from this eruption but old deposits - block the roads in that area.:tiphat: http://news.indahnesia.com/event/53/mount_kelud_kelut_volcano.php

Re: Thousands to be evacuated as Indonesian volcano threatens to erupt

Indonesia officials deny Mt Kelud erupted

Sat Nov 3, 2007 1:40 PM ET

By Heri Retnowati

SUGIHWARAS, Indonesia (Reuters) - Indonesia's volcano center said Mount Kelud in East Java has not erupted, as earlier reported on Saturday.

"There was no eruption. If there had been an eruption, our equipment near the crater would have been damaged," said Surono, head of the Center for Vulcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation.

Earlier on Saturday, center officials said their monitoring instruments near the crater had shown an eruption, but this was impossible to confirm visually because of heavy cloud cover.

Surono said incessant tremors and a dramatic rise in the temperature of the crater lake prompted volcanologists at Mount Kelud to flee their post fearing for their safety.

"Temperatures rose 2 degrees celsius in a day. This was an extremely sharp increase. On other volcanoes such phenomena would have resulted in heat clouds," Surono said.

Umar Rosadi, a scientist monitoring the volcano, said he and 17 colleagues had returned to their post after tremors subsided.

"There has not been an eruption. All of our equipment works normally," he told Reuters.

When Mount Kelud erupted in 1990 at least 30 people were killed. In 1919, about 5,000 died as Kelud ejected scalding water from its crater lake.

An estimated 350,000 people live within 10 km (6 miles) of the volcano which is about 90 km southwest of Surabaya, Indonesia's second-largest city and one of its busiest airports.

In Sugihwaras, a village 8 km from the crater that suffered casualties and was badly damaged in 1990, many people panicked when they heard the reports that Kelud had erupted.

"The mosque announced that Kelud had erupted and there was a half hour to evacuate," said Ngatijo, a villager.

The authorities have been monitoring the volcano for several weeks and raised its alert status to the highest level about two weeks ago when its activity increased.

Indonesia has the highest number of active volcanoes of any country and sits on a belt of intense seismic activity known as the "Pacific Ring of Fire".

Indonesian Eruption Report Creates Panic


By INDRA HARSAPUTRA ? 1 hour ago

MOUNT KELUD, Indonesia (AP) ? Villagers fled the slopes of one of Indonesia's deadliest volcanos Saturday after seismic readings indicated that an eruption had started after weeks of heightened activity.

But Surono, a senior government volcanologist who goes by a single name, told el-Shinta radio station late Saturday that monitoring equipment close to the crater of Mount Kelud was still working, indicating that there had been no eruption.

"In reality Kelud did not erupt", Surono said.

The volcano in the heart of densely populated Java island was shrouded in fog and no visual confirmation of the eruption reports was possible before night fell, government seismologist Umar Rosadi said.

Scores of people, including women hauling babies in slings, descended from the mountain in police trucks and on bicycles and motorcycles. Some were in tears, and many wore masks to protect against volcanic ash.

"I am afraid because the authorities say this eruption will be worse than the ones that have come before," said Marsini, resident of a village three miles from the crater. "They say there may be poisonous gas. I am leaving now."

Rosadi and another government scientist said official monitors had left their posts after detecting continuous tremors.

For weeks, authorities have warned of an impending eruption and pleaded with villagers to move to tent camps or government buildings.

Thousands have evacuated villages closest to the crater but many people have insisted on staying behind to tend to crops or look after their houses.

Some apparently believe a local myth stating if they stayed at home without switching indoor lights on or speaking in a loud voice then the mountain would not erupt.:rolleyes:

Saturday 3rd November 2007
Kelut volcano in Indonesia erupted today about 4:15 pm (local time). The eruption was not directly observed due to cloud cover, but was inferred from seismic measurements. Cloud cover was so thick that ash emissions could not be seen. An official at Indonesia's Centre for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation said that seismic signals went "over the scale". Volcanologists at a monitoring station 7 km from the crater immediately evacuated. Some locals reported hearing an explosion.
