During a Volcanic Eruption:

In case a volcano erupts in your area, remember the following guidelines,

In order to avoid hot gases, lava flow, flying debris and lateral blast, it is important to evacuate the danger zone immediately.

It is important for you to be aware of mudflows. The danger from these flows increase with heavy rains especially near stream channels. It is also important for you to remember that a mudflow moves very fast-faster than you can walk. So, if you have to cross a bridge during evacuation and the mud flow is approaching, do not cross the bridge.

It is important for you to wear long pants and long sleeved shirts that cover your body completely.

To protect your eyes, wear goggles. Additionally, if you are suffering from weak eyesight, wearing eye glasses is a safer option than wearing contacts.

In order to stay protected from the volcanic ash, it is essential to stay away from areas that are at a lower level from the volcano.

Until the ash has settled, it is safe to stay indoors. Nevertheless, if there is a danger of roof collapse, evacuate your residence immediately and move to a safer location.

Close all the windows, doors and other ventilations such as chimneys, air conditioners, vents, and furnaces).

To ensure safety, it is important to clear heavy ash from low pitched or flat roofs and rain gutters.

It is also important for you to avoid driving in heavy ash fall unless it is inevitable. If you cannot avoid driving, drive very slowly and carefully.
