Mexico's Colima Volcano, also known as the Volcano of Fire, erupted 14 times on Thursday, spewing large plumes of ash and gas into sky. The activity is the latest in a series of spectacular but non-threatening eruptions in recent weeks.

The Volcano of Fire, the youngest of the Colima complex’s three volcanoes, previously erupted on January 3, 10, 14 and 25, as well as in November 2014.

Authorities are maintaining a yellow alert for the area, meaning that the volcano " is showing activity" and that residents should be ready for a possible evacuation.

The volcano, one of most active in Mexico, stands between the border of Colima and Jalisco states, 430 miles west of Mexico City.
