The volcano continues to erupt near-continuous weak-to-moderate, sometimes ash-rich explosions at regular intervals of 6 to 8 per hour.
Ash plume heights varied between 14,100 ft-15,400 ft (4,300 m-4,700 m) altitude and extended in range between 15 to 40 kilometers to the west and southwest of the volcano.
Much of the ejected incandescent material is being ejected to a few hundreds meters above the crater, causing weak to moderate glowing avalanches towards Ceniza and Santa Teresa and Honda chutes.
