The scientific committee announced on Monday to Pevolca the tremor signal was held yesterday, Sunday, very irregular during the day, with several pulses of different sizes. In the morning were similar to those at the end of Saturday's final stretch, but after 17:00 pm there was a slight decrease. In the analysis of the data it is not evidence of a second source of tremor.

Meanwhile, ground deformation follows the same pattern of stability in previous days in the horizontal components. Vertically stations indicate El Golfo, mainly, to a slight elevation, while the rest shows deflation.

With respect to the stain, IGN reports that there was no distinct coloration and surface activity in the area where in earlier days was bubbling, reports Pevolca.
