I was reading the news and it said that a volcano in the Philippines erupted, causing over 56,000 people to have to flee their homes.
According to the report, "Mount Mayon, the Philippines' most active volcano, erupted for eight minutes on Monday afternoon, spewing a 3-mile-tall column of debris and volcanic gas. It exploded at least five more times Monday night and Tuesday morning."
Those that were looking to flee via flights out of the country, Legazpi airport, one of the major airports in the Philippines, was shut down due to ash. This has caused multiple flights and out to be delayed and/or cancelled.
I know a lot of Steemians are from the Philippines, so I want to send you guys well wishes and hope for the best for all of you. Keep us updated and let us know you are safe!
