Hunga Tonga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Hunga Tonga-Hunga Haʻapai is a volcano located about 30 kilometres (19 mi) south-southeast of Fonuafoʻou (also known as Falcon Island),[1] an island which is part of the nation of
Tonga."
..."By January 16, a new island had been formed by the explosion.[26] Tongan officials estimated the new island to be 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) wide, 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) long, and 100 metres (330 ft) high,[24][25] although geologists said the new island would probably exist only a few months until ocean waves wore it down.[27] "
..."Tongan officials declared the eruption at an end on January 26,[29] after observing no new gas, ash, or rock emerging from the island vent.[30] By this time the island was 1 to 2 kilometres (0.62 to 1.24 mi) wide, 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) long, and 120 metres (390 ft) high.[29][30] The island had joined with Hunga Haʻapai, and was about 200 metres (660 ft) away from joining with Hunga
Tonga.[29][30] "
At about a mile across, and ~390 feet high I think this new bouncing baby might stay around a while.
