Additionally, Phivolcs said lava flows have now advanced to approximate lengths of 2,800 meters and 1,300 meters along the Mayon’s Mi-si and Bonga gullies, respectively, while sulfur dioxide emission was logged at 976 metric tons on July 6.
“Alert Level 3 is maintained over Mayon Volcano, which means that it is currently in a high level of unrest as magma is at the crater and hazardous eruption within weeks or even days is possible,” Phivolcs stressed in its bulletin. “Increased vigilance against pyroclastic density currents, lahars, and sediment-laden streamflows along channels draining the edifice is also advised. Heavy rainfall could generate channel-confined lahars and sediment-laden streamflows in the channels where pyroclastic density currents were emplaced,” it added.
