Volcano Eruption Imminent In Philippinnes

A volcano located in the Philippinnes called Mayon has been spewing lava and ash for a week now and scientists are warning of an imminent eruption.  Already the majority of the region's population have been evacuated and are now living in shelters while the no-go zone around the volcano has been extended for 6 miles.

The country's chief vulcanologist, Renato Solidum said, "What we are preparing for is a hazardous eruption and a quick descent of pyroclastic ashflow."  Mayon has erupted 48 times, with the last happening in 2006.
