NASA’s Aqua satellite flew overhead Saturday at 12 P.M. (local time) and the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument identified ash continuing to spew from the stratovolcano.
Factoring in the calm conditions in the region this afternoon, the image suggests that the eruption is spewing ash/SO2 emissions due west. The image clearly shows ash concentrations drifting south over the Ethiopia border and into parts of Djibouti.
Nabro (marked red) seen at 12pm Saturday. The ash plume can be seen drifting west and over the border with Ethiopia. Dust, unrelated to the volcano, is also seen drifting from Somalia over the Gulf of Aden.

The region has been hit by 6-8 moderate earthquakes during the past 36 hours, including a 5.6 magnitude quake early Friday. The moderate earthquake struck the Ethiopia/Eritrea border at 10.15 A.M. (GMT) Friday (12.16 P.M. local time). The quake epicentre was located 205 km Northwest of Djibouti (pop 623,891) and 88 km West of Asseb in Eritrea (pop 72,114).
