Fearsome Events - Earthquakes

Dozens dead, 1.7M affected by Mount Fuego eruption in Guatemala - UPI.com
UPI reports: "At least 62 people died after the sudden eruption of Guatemala's Mount Fuego, a seismic event that's affecting nearly 2 million people, local authorities said. [...] Thick ash exploded from the top of the 12,000-foot mountain and winds blew ash northwest toward the cities of San Luca, Antigua Guatemala, Alotenango, Chimaltenago and Zaragoza. The country's seismology institute said the eruption of Mount Fuego, Spanish for 'fire mountain,' sent ash and debris nearly 33,000 feet into the air."

Comment: It seems like the Ring of Fire is getting quite active lately.
