3 MINS AGO: Mayon Volcano CROSSES LEVEL 4 ALERT — Pyroplastic Flows Surge, Thousands Evacuate!

Three minutes ago, Mount Mayon crossed into Level 4 alert status. And here's what that means in plain language — Philippine authorities are now officially declaring that a hazardous eruption is imminent. Not possible. Not likely. Imminent. This is the highest alert level before Level 5, which only gets issued when catastrophic eruption is already underway. Right now, pyroclastic flows are surging down the mountain's flanks multiple times per day. Over 87,000 people have abandoned their homes. And the data coming out of the monitoring stations is showing patterns that scientists haven't seen since 1984 — the last time Mayon killed people. But here's what the official announcements aren't emphasizing. Level 4 doesn't just mean "dangerous activity is happening." It means the volcano has crossed a threshold where the next phase could arrive without warning. The pyroclastic flows that are currently traveling two kilometers could suddenly travel six. The evacuations that currently cover 87,000 people might not be enough. And the most unsettling part? The magma feeding this eruption isn't slowing down. It's accelerating. Let me show you exactly what's happening inside that monitoring station right now, because when you see the data they're looking at, you'll understand why this just became the most dangerous volcanic event in the Philippines in over a decade.
