The Japan Meteorological Agency released a volcanic eruption report today at 22:40 on Sunday, March 27. The eruption occurred around 18:00 today, and the eruption is said to have reached a height of 7,000 m above sea level (23000 FT above sea level).
Observations from the meteorological satellite Himawari have confirmed that an image that appears to be an eruption is flowing northeast.
We are also investigating the situation at the Weathernews Geographical Center. I will update it when more information becomes available.
Japan Meteorological Agency eruption warning announced
In the surrounding waters, be wary of large volcanic bombs and base surges (horizontal eruptions) that scatter in a trajectory that accompanies an eruption. Also, be careful of floating substances (pumice stones, etc.) caused by the eruption.
It seems that the eruption is still continuing as of 23:30.
