Philippines - December 27, 2024 Kanlaon Volcano displayed increased activity on December 27, 2024, with six discrete ash emission events recorded throughout the day. Time-lapse footage captured from the Kanlaon Volcano Observatory showed grayish plumes rising 100 meters above the summit crater between 3:53 p.m. and 4:38 p.m., and again between 9:40 p.m. and 10:31 p.m., when seismic and infrasonic signals were detected despite the lack of visible plumes. The ash clouds drifted westward, adding to the growing concerns about the ongoing volcanic unrest. The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) maintains Alert Level 3 over the area, signaling the potential for hazardous activity. Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely, urging residents to stay vigilant.
