The activity at the volcano continues at reduced levels since the recent paroxysm episode ended in early May.
Passive emissions of gas and steam dominate at the volcano’s summit vent which are being dispersed mostly in the eastern direction.
A near-constant night-time glow and the ongoing degassing suggest continued surge of fresh magma within the conduit.
No ash emissions have been reported since 17 May as the last eruption from the volcano was detected by the Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) Washington.
Moderate-to-strong lahars (mud flows) could also occur if heavy rainfalls remobilise the fresh ash deposits in Seca and Ceniza chutes and may pose a potential threat to inhabited areas.
