Kanlaon showing signs of increased unrest anew
Kanlaon Volcano on Negros Island remains under Alert Level 3 due to increased seismic activity and sulfur dioxide emissions, signifying magmatic unrest.
Phivolcs recorded 15 volcanic earthquakes and 1,712 tons per day of sulfur dioxide emissions in the past few days, with plumes rising 50 meters and drifting southwest.
Ground deformation data indicates inflation at Kanlaon's edifice, suggesting magma intrusion beneath the surface.
Entry into Kanlaon's six-kilometer-radius permanent danger zone is still prohibited.
The provincial government of Negros Occidental is tapping a P50-million fund from Malacañang to assist victims of Kanlaon and improve evacuation sites in La Castellana and Bago City.
