[Title] => Mayons alert level lowered
[Summary] => LEGAZPI CITY Volcanologists still cautioned local folk against venturing into the six-kilometer permanent danger zone of Mayon Volcano even if the five-step alert level was lowered from three to two due to the overall decline in the volcanos unrest.
Volcanologist Ed Laguerta said the permanent danger zone remains off-limits since sudden explosions are still possible, though already remote.

[Title] => Some Mayon evacuees allowed to go home
[Summary] => LEGAZPI CITY More than 850 families, which were forced to flee their homes when volcanologists raised alert level 4 around Mayon Volcano, have been allowed to return home.
Cedric Daep, chief of the provincial disaster management office, said the evacuees reside in villages facing no imminent threat.
Daep said the number of evacuees has swelled after residents of barangays not included in the "must evacuate" list have gone to the various evacuation centers, some of them apparently lured by the relief assistance.

[Title] => Mayon lava flow slows down
[Summary] =>
LEGAZPI CITY Volcanologists said the lava flow of Mayon Volcano has slowed down, with an aerial survey showing the lavas toe stopping at 6.8 kilometers from the crater.
But Lestie Saquillon, a science researcher of the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs), warned that the slowdown of lava extrusion, among other parameters, "is no guarantee yet or a solid basis to say that Mayon is already simmering down.

[Title] => Mayon spits boulders
[Summary] => LEGAZPI CITY Rising magma pressure spit boulders big enough to shake the ground around Mayon Volcano yesterday, but moderate gas emissions showed no eruption is likely for at least several weeks.
Seismic instruments detected several tremors as massive boulders tumbled to the ground, said Julio Sabit, of the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology.
But Sabit said that, while magma is still apparently rising, scientists will not likely raise the current "alert level three," of a maximum five, in the coming days.

[Title] => Major Mayon eruption seen if...
[Summary] =>
LEGAZPI CITY -- Volcanologists here predicted yesterday a major eruption of
Mayon Volcano in Albay if the present "discharge rate" of the lava pile
increases about five times, from the present 0.7 to 2 cubic meters per
second.
This developed as a crater glow was observed for about five minutes past
midnight yesterday, indicating that magma or hot molten rock is nearing the
volcano's summit, volcanologists said.
The magma, which has a temperature ranging from 2,000 to 2,500 degrees Celsius,
cast a bright orange glow observed via a fixed telescope.
