Kamchatkan and Kuriles Volcanic Activity
August 02, 2019, all time is UTC
SHEVELUCH VOLCANO (CAVW #300270)
56.64 N, 161.32 E; Elevation 10768 ft (3283 m), the dome elevation ~8200 ft (2500 m)
Aviation Colour Code is ORANGE
A growth of the lava dome continues, a strong fumarolic activity and an incandescence of the dome blocks and hot avalanches accompanies this process. Satellite data by KVERT showed a thermal anomaly over the volcano.

56.06 N, 160.64 E; Elevation 15580 ft (4750 m)
Aviation Colour Code is ORANGE
A moderate activity of the volcano continues. Satellite data by KVERT shows the volcano was obscured by clouds.

54.05 N, 159.44 E; Elevation 4874 ft (1486 m)
Aviation Colour Code is ORANGE
A moderate gas-steam activity of the volcano continues. Satellite data by KVERT showed a thermal anomaly over the volcano.
EBEKO VOLCANO (CAVW #290380)
50.69 N, 156.01 E; Elevation 3792 ft (1156 m)
Aviation Colour Code is ORANGE
A moderate eruptive activity of the volcano continues. According to visual data by volcanologists from Severo-Kurilsk, explosions sent ash up to 3.0 km a.s.l., ash clouds drifted to the east from the volcano. Satellite data by KVERT shows the volcano was obscured by clouds.

Kamchatkan and Kuriles Volcanic Activity
August 02, 2019, 00:37 UTC (August 02, 2019, 12:37 KST)
KVERT monitor active volcanoes of Kamchatka and the Kurile Islands. Not all of these volcanoes had eruptions in historical time, however they are potentially active and therefore are of concern to aviation.
