Thanks for the link, Paul. There is talk that migration of a large magma chamber West of Taal towards the volcano proper has begun. That is the source of all those (mysterious, to me) mini earthquakes over the past few days. I had expected them to be centered around the eruption point instead of being offset to the west.
I hope that is not an indication that something bigger is on the move

How’s your situation?

I’m reading of over 1/4 million evacuees. :-(

Above ground, everything is normal...Underground — not so much A magma ‘pool’ is still creeping toward the eruption site)
Gov’t advisories change hour-by-hour, .. Right now the news is that by 6 PM local time Friday the entire town and outlying suburbs will be abandoned (by force, if necessary). That gives us about 32 more hours to button things up as tight as we can.

You still in the San Jose area?
