South American Eruption Update: Tungurahua and Planchón-Peteroa still making noise, Puyehue-Cordón Caulle on alert

It has been a busy weekend in the news. Likely lost in all the hub-bub is the continued activity at Tungurahua in Ecuador. The volcano has continued to erupt (video), producing ash plumes that have reached at least 3 km / 10,000 feet over the weekend. Based on some of the images I've seen (top left), the volcano is throwing ballistic bombs over a large swath of the summit area. All of this is well within the typical activity at the volcano when it enters a significant eruptive event - and the Instituto Geofisica of Ecuador seems to think that the conduit for Tungurahua is open, with ready expulsion of ash and gas, so the threat of a large explosive event is diminished. Although the eruption (video) isn't directly hazardous to many right now, the Ecuadoran government has now banned tourists from visiting the vicinity of the volcano.
