Ref: La Palma. Eruption of Cumbre Vieja

I have been reminded that Wikipedia says the riks of a slide have been overplayed.

La Palma - Wikipedia


A survey carried out by Moss et al.; (1999) [13] reported that the western flank is stable with no indication of aseismic creep being recorded.

In 2001 Carracedo et al.; [8] stated that they consider the 1949 crack to be a shallow and inactive surface expression. They do suggest that the crack should be monitored, but consider the possibility that the edifice is unstable as being almost non-existent.

Murty et al.; (2005) [14] claim that the morphology of the Atlantic Ocean prevents the generation and propagation of trans-oceanic tsunamis. However the Tohoku tsunami of 2011 propagated to Hawaii and the coast of California, a distance much greater than a trans-Atlantic crossing.

In 2006 professor Jan Nieuwenhuis of Delft University of Technology simulated several volcanic eruptions and calculated it would take another 10,000 years for the flanks to become sufficiently high and unstable to cause a massive collapse., [15]


So we just enjoy the fireworks. No need to move to higher ground.
