RAD­HI­CA DE SIL­VA

Res­i­dents of Pi­paro are be­ing urged to stay away from the crater of the Pi­paro mud vol­cano, which re­mains high­ly ac­tive and dan­ger­ous, ac­cord­ing to a new re­port from the Uni­ver­si­ty of the West In­dies.

The re­port, is­sued yes­ter­day (De­cem­ber 28), not­ed that even ar­eas that ap­pear calm or qui­et can pose se­ri­ous risks due to un­der­ground pres­sur­ized mud and gas sys­tems.
