The explosive eruption at the volcano continues.
A strong explosion occurred from its crater yesterday morning.
The Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) Washington detected a tall and dense ash plume that rose up to 23,000 ft (7,000 m) height and drifted south.
The eruption was recorded by witnesses from a plane flying over the Mexico City as well, see the video below.
Nevertheless, the Volcanic Alert Level remains at Yellow.
