The elevated eruptive activity from the volcano continues.

A massive phreatomagmatic eruption occurred at the Taal Main Crater this morning.

At about 08:00 local time, a dark ash plume could be seen rising up to 8,000 ft above the caldera.
Phreatomagmatic activity occurs when water interacts with magma, leading to intense explosive reactions within an underwater crater.
