The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology has recorded 19 volcanic earthquakes in Taal in Batangas in the past 24 hours.

In a volcano bulletin issued on Saturday, May 1, Phivolcs said of the 19 volcanic earthquakes recorded, 17 low frequency volcanic earthquakes were recorded.

State seismologists also observed a weak emission of steam-laden plumes from fumaroles or gas vents that rose 10 meters at Taal’s Main Crater. “Ground deformation parameters from electronic tilt, continuous GPS and InSAR monitoring continue to record a very slow and steady inflation and expansion of the Taal region that began after the January 2020 eruption,” Phivolcs said.

“Sudden steam-driven or phreatic explosions, volcanic earthquakes, minor ashfall, and lethal accumulations or expulsions of volcanic gas can occur and threaten areas within and around TVI ,” Philvolcs said.
