Mayon Volcano Eruption Update; A Large Lava Flow Continues to Advance

Описание: A 1.5 mile long lava flow is continuing to expand outwards from Mayon's summit, being funneled in two directions. This andesite lava is currently advancing at a rate of approximately 140 meters a day in the Mi-isi drainage, and there is a legitimate concern that it might eventually flow beyond the current 6 kilometer exclusion zone. This video discusses this possibility and the current state of Mayon's eruption which is now in its 18th day.
