PVMBG and Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) Darwin recorded another eruptions since the last update. A grey ash plume rose 3,280 ft (1,000 m) above the summit and drifted to south and southwest.
Explosions produced small pyroclastic flow that traveled over the upper slopes, as can be seen in the image.
The warning bulletin states that ballistic impacts of volcanic bombs and pyroclastic flows could affect an area of about 3 km distance from the main crater and 5 km on the SE flank and 4 km on the NE flank.
