Around 11:52 of 9/27/2014 (JST), the volcano between Nagano and Gifu “Otakesan-mountain” erupted.

Volcanic earthquakes have been observed since 2 weeks ago, but Japan Meteorological Agency could not predict the eruption due to the absence of diastrophism and other related data, admitted in the press conference of 9/27/2014. Their warning level of the volcano was “Level. 1 (The lowest)” until eruption.

At this moment, over 10 climbers have cardiopulmonary arrest, still 43 are missing. The woundeds are 38.

The height of volcanic fumes is about 300m from the crater. The fumes have also flowed down for 3km.

Volcanic earthquake is still continuing. Japan Meteorological Agency comments the same level of the eruption might occur again.

The last eruption was 3. 2007, but it was very minor. Japan Meteorological Agency warns that large volcanic cinders may fall within 4km radius area from the crater, and small volcanic cinders may reach further to break windows of the houses with the wind.

Un volcan en éruption au centre du Japon : plus de 10 personnes en arrêt cardio-respiratoire, 43 disparus

 

Photo : Message d’un randonneur moins d’une minute avant l’éruption. C’est au sommet du volcan et cette personne n’a plus rien publié sur Twitter depuis. On lit : “Ascension agréable du mont Otakesan par moi-même :)”. [Lien]

 

Ce 27 septembre 2014 vers 11:52 (JST), le volcan situé entre Nagano et Gifu, le “mont Otakesan” est entré en éruption.

Des séismes volcaniques avaient été observés depuis 2 semaines mais la Japan Meteorological Agency ne pouvait pas prédire d’éruption en raison de l’absence de diastrophisme (ndt: gonflement du cône volcanique) et d’autres éléments liés, ont-ils reconnu au cours d’une conférence de presse ce 27 septembre 2014. Jusqu’à l’éruption, leur niveau d’alerte pour ce volcan était de “niveau 1” (le plus bas).
Pour l’instant plus de 10 randonneurs ont été retrouvés en arrêt cardio-respiratoire et 43 sont toujours portés disparus. Il y a 38 blessés.
Le panache des fumées monte à environ 300 m du cratère. Des nuées ardentes se sont aussi écoulées sur 3 km.
Les séismes volcaniques se poursuivent. La Japan Meteorological Agency déclare qu’une éruption de même niveau peut encore se produire.
La dernière éruption datait de mars 2007 mais elle a été très réduite.
La Japan Meteorological Agency alerte sur la possibilité de grandes retombées de cendres volcaniques dans un rayon de 4 km autour du cratère et que de les cendres plus légères peuvent aller plus loin en pouvant briser des vitres sous l’effet du vent.

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
