No emissions were observed in satellite images, but regional clouds would obscure activity below 10,000 feet (3 km) asl. Possible ash clouds generated by such events are expected to be small and dissipate quickly. Fallout of ash, if any, is unlikely to extend much beyond the upper flanks of the volcano.Popocatépetl (Central Mexico): (16 Jul) The explosive eruption at the volcano continues.
