Best Answer

The Colima volcano is a stratovolcano, like Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helens in Washington, or Mt. Fuji in Japan. As such, it has a tendency to have explosions which include ash and pyroclastic flows (hot gas and rock).

Ultimately, the danger of the Colima volcano lies in its pyroclastic flows, especially for communities close to the volcano.
