Kanlaon Volcano remains on Alert Level 3 due to magmatic unrest

Kanlaon Volcano remains under Alert Level 3 due to magmatic unrest, as evidenced by recent ash emissions.

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) recorded 18 volcanic earthquakes on Friday, March 7, 2025, including one volcanic tremor lasting 15 minutes.

An ash emission also occurred on Friday, producing plumes rising up to 200 meters high and drifting west and west-southwest.

The volcano emitted 2,181 tonnes of sulfur dioxide on Friday, indicating continued degassing.

Phivolcs noted that the volcano's edifice remains inflated.

Residents within a 6-kilometer radius are still advised to evacuate due to the risk of sudden eruptions, ashfall, rockfall, or lava flow.

A no-fly zone around the volcano has been recommended by Phivolcs.
