Seismic and volcanic danger committees meet again today to examine new seismic activity data in the area
There is a restrained optimism by scientists about the evolution of seismic activity in the Cyclades with data showing a declining course.
It is noted that three seismic vibrations, two of which were 4.1 on the Richter scale and a 4.4, were recorded in the maritime area 17-26 kilometers southwest of the Community At 05:11, at 05:08 and 03: 52-, according to data released by the Geodynamic Institute of the National Observatory of Athens.
All three earthquakes were described as “patients” by the Institute. Dozens of vibrations in the area continue to be recorded daily.
“Clearly better” was described by Professor of Geophysics and Seismology, Costas Papazachos, speaking to ERTnews, stressing that there has been a relative recession in the last two days, and has stopped expanding the activity northeast. At the same time, however, he stressed that “we can in no way say that there is an end of the alarm.”
It is noted that seismic and volcanic danger committees are meeting today to examine the new seismic activity in the area.
Yesterday, 3 new seismographs were placed in Santorini while Professor Papazachos estimated that the scenario of a stronger earthquake was constantly removing.
Today the decision on schools
In the meantime, today is expected the suggestion of scientists for whether they will work by Monday schools.
The Municipality of Thira remains in a state of emergency until March 3, while scientists are calm to the decline that can be done “either with an earthquake of more than 5.5 Richter or the continuation of the activity ongoing”, which Efthimios Lekkas He mentioned as a rod.
“We are preparing for the worst, we hope for the best,” the prime minister said yesterday from Santorini, who, after being informed of the preparation of the state mechanism, announced funding of 3m euros for a escape gateway to the southern part of the island. The static control of the buildings is in progress.
