Philippines raises volcano alert level as eruptions spew ash

The Philippines raised the alert at its restive Mayon volcano by one notch early today(Jan.14), citing signs of rising magma that could lead to hazardous eruptions.

Residents were evacuated from two villages near the volcano, a tourist attraction in Albay province because of its near-perfect cone shape, following a “phreatic or steam-driven eruption”.
