Kanlaon emits 3,078 tonnes of sulfur dioxide as alert level 3 holds
Kanlaon Volcano recorded one volcanic earthquake and emitted 3,078 tonnes of sulfur dioxide on Friday, according to PHIVOLCS.
The volcano also produced weak plumes that rose up to 50 meters and drifted west, with its edifice showing signs of inflation.
Alert Level 3 remains in effect for Kanlaon Volcano, necessitating a continued evacuation within a six-kilometer radius of its summit.
A no-fly zone is enforced around the volcano due to potential hazards such as explosive eruptions, lava flow, ashfall, and pyroclastic density currents.
The recent "explosive" eruption on April 8 caused ashfall and damage to agriculture amounting to nearly P1 million.
