VIVAnews - Mt Bromo still emits thick smoke into the air although its status has been dropped off to 'standby'. The volcano, which nestles on Probolinggo, East Java, is a top tourist attraction known for its "sea of sands".
"Dense smoke is still seen on Bromo, drifting to the east and northeast off Bromo at the heights of around 400 meters to 800 meters," said Chief of Bromo Watch Tower, M Syafii, today, Dec 20.
He went on to say that the situation is far from dangerous. However, the safety zone remains at the vicinity of 2 kilometers from the crater's peak.
Earlier, The Geological Disaster Management and Volcanology Center lowered the status of Mt Bromo to 'standby' on December 6, 2010. Nevertheless, the status will be revised if the volcano resumes its rumbles.
