Kanlaon and Bulusan Volcanoes are showing signs they will go through phreatic or stream-driven eruptions, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) said on Thursday.
At the Laging Handa public briefing, PHIVOLCS officer-in-charge Undersecretary Renato Solidum Jr. said that what concerns the agency is the “tornillo type volcanic earthquakes” monitored around Kanlaon in past days.
“Noong mga nakaraang araw meron tayong na-record na tinatawag na tornillo type volcanic earthquake event. Ito po ay isang hugis turnilyo at ito po ang nagbibigay ng parang concern sa atin,” he said. According to him, the tornillo volcanic earthquake event is usually followed by a phreatic or steam-driven explosion, adding that volcano is swollen.“Pareho po ng Bulkang Kanlaon, nakikita natin na posibleng magkaroon din ng steam-driven explosion ang Bulusan. At importante na pag-ingatan ito
Solidum reminded concerned residents to avoid the four-kilometer permanent danger zone of the volcanoes.
