As of 15 September 2024, Alert Level 2 is maintained over Kanlaon Volcano.

On 03 June 2024 at 8:00 PM, Alert Level 2 was raised from Alert Level 1 for Kanlaon Volcano after a moderately explosive eruption occurred at the summit crater. On 08 June, 28 June, 02 July, 03 July, 15 July, 10 August, 13 August, 21 August, 24 August, 25 August, 09 September, 10 September, and 11 September 2024, observations of increased seismic activity, increased ground deformation changes, and elevated volcanic sulfur dioxide gas flux were recorded over the Kanlaon Volcano.

The public is reminded that Alert Level 2 (increasing unrest) prevails over Kanlaon. This means that there is current unrest may lead to eruptive unrest and an increase in the Alert Level.

The public is strongly advised to be vigilant and avoid entry into the four (4) kilometerradius Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) to minimize risks from volcanic hazards such as pyroclastic density currents, ballistic projectiles, rockfall and others. In case of ash fall events that may affect communities downwind of Kanlaon's crater, people should cover their nose and mouth with a damp, clean cloth or dust mask.

Civil aviation authorities must also advise pilots to avoid flying close to the volcano's summit as ash and ballistic fragments from sudden eruption can be hazardous to aircraft.

Communities living beside river systems on the southern and western slopes, especially those that have already experienced lahars and muddy stream flows, are advised to take precautionary measures when heavy rainfall over the volcano has been forecast or has begun.

A total of 17,408 families or 57,637 persons are affected in 23 barangays in Regions VI and VII (see Annex A).
