MANILA, Philippines — Alert Level 1 is still over Taal Volcano, state seismology bureau Phivolcs reminded the public Friday as it recommended the areas remain prohibited after nearly 20 eruptions were recorded in the area. 

 

This means, they said in an advisory, that the volcano is “still in abnormal condition and should not be interpreted to have ceased unrest nor ceased the threat of eruptive activity.”

 

Phivolcs issued the notice after low-level activity in Taal Volcano was recorded, which included a total of 19 “very weak phreatomagmatic bursts” from a vent in the volcano’s northeastern side between 8:50 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. earlier Friday.
