NAGBABALA ang Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) sa posibleng panibagong phreatic eruption sa Mt. Bulusan sa harap ng pagtaas ng seismic activity ng bulkan,
Nakapagtala ng 45 volcanic earthquake, kasama na ang dalawang low-frequency volcanic earthquake sa bulkan nitong mga nakalipas na araw.
“Most of these were weak and shallow events, but may indicate that a phreatic eruption could possibly occur within the next few hours,” sabi ng Phivolcs.
Ayon sa Phivolcs, nananatili ang Alert Level 1 sa Mt. Bulusan.
“Local government units and the public are reminded that entry into the 4-kilometer radius Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) must be strictly prohibited and that vigilance in the 2-kilometer Extended Danger Zone (EDZ) on the southeast sector must be exercised due to the increased possibilities of sudden and hazardous phreatic eruptions,” dagdag pa Phivolcs.
