Chile Chaiten Volcano
Posted: Sat May 10, 2008 07:28 PM UTC
Hi everyone, Hola a todos,

Has anyone got any information on the about the Chaiten eruption in Chile?
I'm going to San Carlos de Bariloche in Argentina(July) and I read some airports were closed. Aerolineas Argentinas seem to say that Neuquen and Esquel airports are closed due to smoke.

¿Alguien tiene màs informacion sobre el volcan Chaìten? Voy a San Carlos de Bariloche, Argentina (julio) y leo que unos aeropuertos estan cerrados. AA dicen que aeropuertos Neuquen y Esquel estan cerrados por razon del humo.

Many thanks, muchas gracias
David

Ash goes with wind. So it is very difficult to say how will be in San Carlos de Bariloche. I just am sending to you how was the spreading ash on May, 2.

Thanks Guys,
I know July is a long way off, but eruptions can sometimes go on for months.

Señor Maynes, I saw your blog, cheers. Good luck with your trip...I wish you a wind from behind...or some other cycling proverb!

Thanks
David
