Highest alert issued for Indonesia's Merapi volcano

From BBC. Excerpts:

Indonesia has raised the alert for its most volatile volcano, Mount Merapi, to its highest level and warned villagers in threatened areas to move to safer ground.
And:
Officials said about 500 volcanic earthquakes had been recorded on the mountain over the weekend.

"The magma has been pushed upwards due to the escalating seismic energy and it's about a kilometre below the crater," AFP news agency quoted government volcanologist Surono as saying.

The region is active. If the sun pops off a big enough CME in the next few days, we might see some real seismic activity, with both quakes and volcanoes striking this same area. The conditions seem perfect for some big destruction..
