This screen grab shows the IP camera footage of the eruption on May 13, 2025 at Kanlaon Volcano captured by the Upper Pantao Observation Station (VKUP) in Canlaon City.
The "moderate explosion" that took place at 2:55 a.m. generated a greyish voluminous plume that rose three kilometers above the vent before drifting to the general west, Phivolcs said.
Phivolcs director Teresito Bacolcol said rumbling sounds were reported in Barangay Pula, Canlaon City, Negros Oriental and La Castellana, Negros Occidental.
Incandescent pyroclastic density currents or PDCs descended the southern slopes within two kilometers of the crater based on visual and thermal camera monitoring, he said.
