At 8:44 a.m., the volcano emitted a grayish plume that reached up to 300 meters above the summit crater before drifting north-northeast, an event recorded by Mayon Volcano Observatory - Ligñon Hill (VMLH) Crater RasPi Camera, said the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS).
At present, Alert Level 2 prevails over Mayon Volcano.
