Rumblings from the Arenal Volcano

The Tico Times reported a small eruption at the Arenal Volcano yesterday.

The eruption led to some small avalanches and also some small fires as hot lava reached the tree line.

Arenal National Park remains open and La Fortuna, at the base of the Arenal Volcanoe, is not at risk.
