The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said on Thursday, February 11, that steam reported near Mount Makiling in Laguna came from hot springs.
Phivolcs also reiterated that Mount Makiling is not an active volcano. This means there is no danger of an eruption.
“Ang nakitang steaming ay mula sa hot springs katulad ng hot spring resorts na pinupuntahan sa Laguna. Ang hot springs ay normal na makikita sa mga bulkan,” the agency said in a Facebook post early Thursday afternoon.
(The steaming that was seen came from hot springs similar to those found in hot spring resorts that people go to in Laguna. Hot springs are normal features of volcanoes.)
On Thursday morning, the municipal government of Los Baños said Mayor Tony Kalaw and other personnel visited Lakewood Subdivision in Barangay Tadlac, where the steam was spotted.
The local officials had asked Phivolcs to determine the cause of the steaming.
