Thousands of people were evacuated in The Philippines on Saturday after a volcano erupted with plumes of steam and ash that went nearly two miles in the sky, Reuters reported.
The threat level for Taal volcano, located in a lake south of the capital Manila, was raised from level two to level three on a scale of zero to five on Saturday morning after it spewed plumes that reached up to 9,800 feet, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) said in a statement.
A total of 1,100 people, including fisherman in the lake, were evacuated by authorities, PHIVOLCS told Reuters.

No we are north of Manila...this was 30 miles south of Manila.
But thanks for worrying about us.

That’s a really cool place. I’m thinking they’re going to have to look for another place to fish, now, however.

It’s not near me. I am about 20 miles from Mount Apo. 😀🙃 I have, however, seen the Taal volcano, in the past. 👍

Climate Change Zealots wrote off all the crap spewed out by Mt. Pinatubo in the PI as being “only-temporary” and “non-impact” to the climate. MUCH more serious is some little old lady driving here internal combustion engine car to the market, however.

At our current rate of decay, a few years at most. So there’s sufficient time to get right.
