FEATURED STORIES

But Phivolcs described these volcanic seismic activities as imperceptible or not easily noticed earthquakes that started in January this year.

Alert Level 1 was first hoisted over Pinatubo in March due to the frequency of the earthquakes. The volcano had been on normal status since 1996.
