The seismic network at Mayon Volcano  (13.2576^oN, 123.6856^oE) recorded no volcanic earthquake during the past 24 hours. Steaming activity was moderate with white plumes drifting east-northeast. An intense crater glow was observed from the summit crater, however measurement of the Sulfur Dioxide (SO₂) emission of the volcano plume was not carried out due to bad weather conditions.

Alert Level 3 remains in effect over Mayon Volcano, which means that the volcano is still at high level of unrest with fair probability for explosive eruptions. The public is reminded that the following zones should remain off-limits: Extended Danger Zone (EDZ), the area in the southeast sector up to seven (7) kilometers from the summit; and the 6-kilometer Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) for all other areas around the volcano.
