Not much going on, search on FB for the group Mount Agung Daily Report, the best place for non sensationalized information. Here is the latest update from Jackie Pomeroy:
10 September twice-weekly update.
Based on Agung’s consistent, very low-level behavior, updates are now being posted on Monday and Thursday morning (Bali time). Unusual events will be posted when they occur.
• Agung has been very quiet over the past four days. Over these past few days PVMBG reports included regular small blowing tremors releasing gasses from the crater (17 over the four days), plus very limited activity in and around the volcano: one shallow volcanic, one deep volcanic, and one local tectonic quake. A total of 66 far tectonic quakes over the four days averages about 17 per day, mainly from the Lombok area but a few from farther away, too – the 6.8 quake near Suva, Fiji in the early hours of 07 Sept showed up on the Agung seismograph (see my post from that day for the seismo). PVMBG observers noted pretty regular steam & gas emissions, but mostly in the 20-50 meter range above the crater, so there is no indication of great pressure building up. The two photos are sunset yesterday from Lombok by Marie Gaudray, and a beautiful, clear sunrise this morning from the CCTV at Batulompeh. Gunung Agung remains at Level III (Siaga), with a 4-kilometer exclusion zone around the crater.
