Volcanic activity refers to the processes and phenomena associated with the eruption of a volcano. It involves the release of molten rock (magma), gases, ash, and other materials from the Earth’s interior onto the surface or into the atmosphere.
Ensure you have a solid plan in place for both sheltering and evacuation. Create and review evacuation and sheltering plans for yourself, your family, and other household members.
During a volcanic eruption, prioritize your safety by adhering to evacuation orders issued by authorities. Follow your pre-established evacuation plan and identify safe locations away from the affected area where you and your family can find shelter.
Minimize your exposure to volcanic ash and gases by staying indoors as much as possible. If you need to venture outside, wear protective clothing such as long-sleeved shirts, long pants, sturdy shoes, and a dust mask to shield yourself from potential hazards.
Stay informed about volcanic activity by staying connected to reliable sources of information, such as local volcano observatories, emergency management agencies, and official communication channels.
