The undeniable level exercises of Taal Volcano, including three short phreatomagmatic emissions since Friday morning were observed. The significant degrees of volcanic sulfur dioxide or SO2 gas discharges and steam-rich crest that rose as much as (3,000) meters high that floated southwest and north-northwest were produced from the Taal Main Crater.
The sulfur dioxide (SO2) discharge arrived at the midpoint of 10,254 tons/day on 02 July 2021. Along with this, The state volcanologists additionally noticed vog over Taal Volcano and its area.
