Scaredy Times Ahead: Taal Volcano continues to show heightened activity

MANILA, Philippines -- Restive Taal Volcano in Batangas province continues to show heightened activity, a day after the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) raised the alert level over the volcano.
''The volcano's seismicity, ground deformation and carbon dioxide content remain high. We will continue to observe if the volcano's activity will intensify in the next days. But for now, Alert Level 2 remains hoisted over Taal Volcano,'' Phivolcs science research specialist Jojo Cordon said.
In its latest volcano bulletin, Phivolcs detected six volcanic earthquakes around the Taal Volcano in the last 24 hours.
Although the number of volcanic earthquakes is lower than the 21 quakes last Saturday, seismicity around the volcano remains active. Source: ph.news.yahoo.com
