Ecuador volcano erupts

Last Saturday, December 4th, Ecuador authorities evacuated anyone within 8 miles from the Tungurahua volcano as a precaution. On Sunday the volcano started blowing ashes and gases into the sky and super-hot pyroclastic flows surging down its slopes. Who ever was not evacuated the day before was told to leave the area immediately.  It was under red alert and no one was aloud in the area. No deaths have been report and little damage. Recently this volcano has been more active and scientists have been keeping and eye out for any eruptions like this one. The surrounding area knew the warning signs a volcano and started to prepare themselves for the eruption. Once they saw the gases and ashes some started evacuating and others waiting until the could hear the rumbling.
