Heads up, Negros.
Kanlaon Volcano is making its presence felt today, April 14, 2025, with not one, but two ash emission events — all within just a few hours.
The first episode started late this morning at 11:52 AM, producing a thick ash plume that reached up to 800 meters high. It drifted toward the west-northwest, affecting areas like La Carlota City, Bago City, and nearby towns. That first emission wrapped up by 2:12 PM.
But just as things seemed to settle, another ash emission began at 2:53 PM — this time with a plume reaching about 600 meters high. Again, the ash is being carried west-northwest, so folks in the same areas should stay alert for possible ashfall.
As of writing, Alert Level 3 is still in place over Kanlaon Volcano, which means there’s still a possibility of more explosive activity. So if you’re in nearby areas, it’s best to stay indoors, wear masks if going outside, and keep those windows closed.
We’ll keep you posted as updates come in. Stay safe and stay alert.
