The 5,725-foot San Cristobal volcano, which sits around 95 miles north of the capital Managua in the country's northwest, has been active in recent years, and stirred in mid-2008, when it expelled gas and rumbled with a series of small eruptions.

No actual venting, but numerous volcanic tremors that usually indicate movement of magma. I don't think it's quite the level of the alerts in your link, but something they are watching. Of note is the fact that Apoyeque last erupted about 50 BC! TANSTAAFL - There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch

I read an interesting article this morning that spoke of how scientists have discovered that before the dinosaurs were wiped out there were mass oceanic Extinctions...caused by huge volcanic eruptions... that went on for about 100,000 years!!!

There are volcanos in Costa Rica too.
