Based on a sped-up video footage released on social media, Phivolcs said the ash emission at the Mayon’s crater occurred at 8:30 a.m.
‘This event generated a grayish plume that drifted east-northeast as recorded by the VMCB (Calbayog Observation Station) RasPi Camera,’ Phivolcs said.
Alert Level 2 remains over Mayon Volcano, indicating a moderate level of volcanic unrest.
Phivolcs advised the public to avoid entering into the six-kilometer-radius permanent danger zone.
