Thousands of residents of St. Vincent, a small island in the Caribbean, are being evacuated as it is believed La Soufriere volcano is about to erupt.

The Daily Mail provides the details:

Thousands of residents of the Caribbean island of St. Vincent have been ordered to evacuate their homes due to the imminent eruption at the La Soufriere volcano.

Ralph Gonsalves, Prime Minister of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, said people living in so-called red zones in the northwest and northeast of the island needed to leave as the volcano pumped out more smoke and steam. 

Roughly 16,000 people live in the red zones and will need to be evacuated, Erouscilla Joseph, director of the University of the West Indies’ Seismic Research Center said.

As mentioned several times before, the prophet Joel warned about volcanic eruptions in the end times:

“I will display wonders in the sky and on the earth, Blood, fire and columns of smoke. ³¹ “The sun will be turned into darkness
And the moon into blood, Before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. (Joel 2:30-31 NASV)
