The Kanlaon Volcano released a total of 7,594 tonnes of sulfur dioxide flux on Saturday, November 23, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) said on Sunday.
Kanlaon Volcano also emitted a “moderate” 50-meter tall plume, which drifted southwest.
PHIVOLCS earlier warned people against prolonged exposure to sulfur dioxide as the fumes can cause irritation of the eyes, throat, and respiratory tract.
