Is the Paricutín dangerous

Answer 1

Right now, it is a dormant volcano meaning no activity has happened recently. It is a Strombolian volcano, meaning when it erupted, it had very fluid lava with some hazards such as incandescent cinder, lapilli (gravel) and lava bombs thrown to altitudes of tens to hundreds of meters.

Answer 2

Yes, Paricutín is considered dangerous due to its history of eruptions. It emerged in 1943 and was active for about 9 years, causing destruction and displacement of nearby communities. While it is currently dormant, it is important to monitor it closely due to its unpredictable nature.

Answer 3

Not any more. Like many cinder cones, Paricutin lacks a Plumbing system to keep a supply iof magma going. So once activity at that volcano stopped in 1952, it stopped permanently.

Answer 4

Tephras, which means the lava goes into the air, 50 ft to be exact, then comes back down and flows. The lava is basaltic and is very dangerouos.
