The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) reported that Mount Mayon emitted 962 tonnes of sulfur dioxide in the past 24 hours.
This is higher compared to the 864 tonnes recorded yesterday. Lava flows were also observed in the same gullies, reaching up to 3.3 kilometers.
The agency continues to remind the public that flying near the volcano’s crater is prohibited due to the hazardous ash emissions from sudden eruptions, which pose a danger to aircraft.
According to the agency’s latest bulletin, a total of 295 rockfall events, 3 volcanic earthquakes, 2 dome-collapse pyroclastic density current events, and 2 lava flows were also recorded on the volcano.
Slow lava flow from the crater was observed in the Mi-isi gully, extending up to 2.7 kilometers, and in the Bonga gully, reaching up to 1.3 meters.
