Fuego Volcano - current activity started on Jan 4, 2002, with ash explosions, avalanches, and lava flows. COSPEC measurements of SO2 flux are currently (April 7, 2002) at about 800 tons/day. Fuego's last big eruption was on 1974. Approximately 50,000 people live on the flanks of the volcano, with one of the worst hazards been the occurrence of lahars or volcanic mudflows.
