(Eagle News)–An alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal as its crater and fissures continue to spew steam and its seismic activity. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said activity in the main crater in the past 24 hours has been characterized by moderate emission of the white to dirty white steam-laden plumes rising 200 to 300 meterd high. PHIVOLCS said it also observed a weak steaming from fissure vents along the Daang Kastila […]

Alert level 3 still hoisted over Taal as steam emissions, quakes continue
(Eagle News)–An alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal as it continues to spew steam-laden plumes and its seismic activity, and steaming continued to be observed in vent fissures. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the moderate emission of the white to dirty white steam-laden plumes rising 200 to 300m high took place in the last 24 hours. PHIVOLCS said the steaming was currently ongoing in the fissure vents along the Daang Kastila […]
PHIVOLCS: Taal volcano still on alert level 3 as crater, fissure vents emit steam
(Eagle News) — An alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal volcano as it continues to emit steam-laden plumes and its seismic activity. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said activity in the main crater in the past 24 hours has been characterized by “moderate emission” of the white to dirty white plumes rising 200 to 300 meters high. Weak steaming from fissure vents along the Daang Kastila trail was also observed. Sulfur dioxide […]
Alert level 3 still hoisted over Taal as emission of steam-laden plumes, seismic activity continue
(Eagle News)–An alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal volcano as it continues to emit steam-laden plumes 50 to 100 meters high. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said in its latest bulletin on Thursday, Feb. 6 ,that the Taal Volcano Network also recorded 132 volcanic earthquakes including three low-frequency events and eleven harmonic tremors. PHIVOLCS said the tremors continued for two to three minutes. “These earthquakes signify magmatic activity beneath the Taal edifice […]
Alert level 3 still hoisted over Taal; steam-laden plumes, quakes monitored
(Eagle News)–Alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal as it continues to spew steam-laden plumes and its seismic activity. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said activity in the main crater in the past 24 hours has been characterized by weak emission of steam-laden plumes 50 to 100 meters tall. Sulfur dioxide emission was measured at an average of 55 tons per day on February 4. PHIVOLCS said the Taal Volcano Network recorded 156 […]

(Eagle News)–Alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal as it continues to spew steam-laden plumes and its seismic activity. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said activity in the main crater in the past 24 hours has been characterized by weak emission of steam-laden plumes 50 to 500 meters tall. Sulfur dioxide emission was measured at an average of 231 tons per day on February 3. PHIVOLCS said the Taal Volcano Network recorded 223 […]
Alert level 3 still hoisted over Taal as it spews steam-laden plumes 800 meters high
Earthquakes also monitored (Eagle News)–Alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal as it continues to spew steam-laden plumes and seismic activity. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the moderate to voluminous emission of dirty-white to white steam-laden plumes rising 800 meters high was monitored in the last 24 hours. Sulfur dioxide emission was measured at an average of 97 tons per day on February 1. Taal Volcano’s seismic monitoring network, on the other […]
Alert level 3 still hoisted over Taal volcano as it continues to spew steam-laden plumes
Earthquakes also recorded (Eagle News)–An alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal volcano as it continued to spew steam-laden plumes 50 to 100 meters tall. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said Taal continued its seismic activity as well, with the Taal Volcano Network recording 153 volcanic earthquakes including two low-frequency events. “These earthquakes signify magmatic activity beneath the Taal edifice that could lead to eruptive activity at the main crater,” PHIVOLCS said. Sulfur […]
Watch: Weak emission of white steam laden plumes in Taal Volcano on Feb. 1
(Eagle News) — In this video taken by Eagle News Service correspondent Ghadz Rodelas, wispy to weak wispy to weak emission of white to dirty white steam-laden plumes continue to be seen at the Taal Volcano’s main crater as of Saturday, Feb. 1, 2020. Taal Volcano remains under Alert Level 3 which means that there is a “decreased tendency towards a hazardous eruption.” Rodelas came with the members of the Provincial Public Order and […]
Alert level 3 still hoisted over Taal as quakes, plumes continue to be monitored
(Eagle News)–An alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal as it continued its seismic activity. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the Taal Volcano Network recorded 182 volcanic earthquakes including one low-frequency event and one harmonic tremor that lasted 3 minutes. “These earthquakes signify magmatic activity beneath the Taal edifice that could lead to eruptive activity at the main crater,” PHIVOLCS said. According to PHIVOLCS, activity in the main crater in the past […]
Alert level 3 still hoisted over Taal; plumes, quakes monitored
(Eagle News) — An alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal as it continues to spew steam-laden plumes 500 to 700 meters tall. In its bulletin on Friday, Jan. 31, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said although sulfur dioxide was below instrumental detection, the Philippine Seismic Network plotted 763 volcanic earthquakes since 1 p.m. of Jan. 12, when the phreatic eruption took place. Over 100, or 177 of these registered at magnitudes 1.2 […]
Alert level 3 still hoisted over Taal as it spews steam-laden plumes
(Eagle News)–An alert level 3 remains hoisted over Taal as it continued to spew white steam-laden plumes 500 meters tall. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said the Taal Volcano Network detected 137 volcanic earthquakes including two low-frequency events and one harmonic tremor that lasted for 97 seconds. The Philippine Seismic Network recorded seven volcanic earthquakes with no felt event. PHIVOLCS reiterated the ban on the entry into the Volcano Island and into areas […]
