Taal Eruption 2020

[111prez]

Very heavy emissions this morning and still going on.

This is a screen capture from the livestream of MADAM RUTSA on YouTube.

Bakit hinde katulad ng sa new Zealand or Hawaii na mga volcanoes dito pag pumutok yun Meron na lumalabas na lava? Iba ba mga volcanoes natin?

yes,
there are several types of volcanoes and volcanic eraptions.
ginugel ko. interesting.

Mechanism of formation is different. hawaiian volcanoes are "hot spot" volcanoes. Source of magma is almost similar to mantle material or what is called "primitive". Not much water (not so explosive eruptions), hotter, low in silica and high in iron and magnesium (black and smoother lava), hence flows much easier. In contrast Philippine and New Zealand volcanoes are island arc type. Magma comes from partially-melted material under the crust caused by mixing of water. The water acts as a "flux", makes the melting point of the rocks lower. The water come from oceanic crust diving under another crust. The water makes our volcanoes more explosive, and because the magma comes form recycled rocks, its less-"primitive" and therefore has higher silica, lower tempearture and slightly lower iron and magnesium content (lava is lighter in color and more blocky).

Sign na yung magma malapit na sa surface. Possible malapit na magerupt. Better be reay bro kung malapit ka sa taal.

Oh, Mr. President.

while it might seem logical on the superficial side,
in reality, the very hugeness of the project makes it impossible.

So ang eruption nito same ng last year? Ganun klase?

This reminds me of another president who suggested to nuke a hurricane

Same as last year, violent, but I don't expect it to be of the same magnitude (I can still be wrong). Its giving off lots of gas and steam w/c means its not building up much pressure and its only been the last eruption. Compare yung video last Friday vs video nung 2020. Maiksi lang and maliit yung Friday.

Mga bulkan sa Japan, Pilipinas, Indonesia, Italy, New Zealand & South America are pretty violent when they erupt. Lots of explosions. Hawaii, East Africa and Iceland naman less violent to even quiet but can still be spectacular.

Not to mention that Taal has over 40 craters.

DILG Region IV-A just posted, through the NDRMMC, its memo "encouraging LGUs" to not allow all non-essential travel to Batangas Province, especially to high risk areas, in view (not in lieu) of Taal Alert Level 3.

Operative word here is to "encourage."

RIP English language

Mali din ang translation ng infographic sa original na memo.

Magkaiba ang "prohibit" sa "encouraged to not allow"

Iba ang "pinagbabawal" sa "pinaghihimok"

i am...
disheartened.
we used to be the english masters in this part of the planet.

We are scheduled for 2nights stay in pico de loro this coming wednesday is it considered high risk area?

Volcano Hazard Maps

Not in the immediate danger zone.

Okay good to hear that.

You can still experience ashfall though, if the eruption is strong and the wind direction goes your way.
