Bulkang Kanlaon, patuloy na nagbubuga ng mas mataas na usok

Patuloy na nagbubuga ng mas matataas na usok ang Bulkang Kanlaon sa Negros Island sa ikatlong araw kahapon , Miyerkoles, June 24 batay sa Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS).

Sa 8 a.m. bulletin, sinabi ng PHIVOLCS na nasa 300 metro ang taas ng buga nito.

“One earthquake at 7:00 p.m. yesterday was recorded at M3.6 by the Philippine Seismic Network and was felt at Intensity III in La Carlota City and at Intensity II in Bago City, Negros Occidental.”

“These parameters indicate that hydrothermal or magmatic activity is occurring beneath the edifice,” lahad pa ng PHIVOLCS.

Kasalukuyang nasa Alert Level 1 ang Bulkang Kanlaon.

“The local government units and the public are strongly reminded that entry into the 4-kilometer radius Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) must be strictly prohibited due to the further possibilities of sudden and hazardous steam-driven or phreatic eruptions.”

“Civil aviation authorities must also advise pilots to avoid flying close to the volcano’s summit as ejecta from any sudden phreatic eruption can be hazardous to aircraft,” paalala pa ng PHIVOLCS.
