a succession of small eruptions happened which led to a major eruption that lasted for 9 hours.
Not in recorded history, but it had erupted before, otherwise there would be no Mount Pinatubo. Its last eruption before 1991 was about 600 years ago.
Mount Pinatubo had LATERAL eruption. It means, generally volcano erupts at its highest peak where its vent finds an opening, but mount Pinatubo got a weak side and therefore it erupted laterally.
About 300 people were killed in the 1991 Mount Pinatubo lahar disaster in the Philippines. The lahar, which is a type of volcanic mudflow, was triggered by the eruption of Mount Pinatubo. It caused widespread destruction in the surrounding areas.
Mount Pinatubo is located on the Island of Luzon in the Philippines.
Scientists predicted the eruption of Mount Pinatubo by monitoring various volcanic precursors, such as increased seismic activity, deformation of the volcano's surface, and gas emissions. These signs allowed researchers to forecast the eruption and issue warnings to evacuate nearby communities.

The most recent eruption of Mount Pinatubo produce ash and pumice.
Mount Pinatubo is located on the Island of Luzon in the Philippines.
Mount Pinatubo produced a massive eruption on June 15, 1991 after a series of smaller eruptions. The eruption was approximately 20 times larger than the 1980 eruption of Mount St Helens and killed nearly 900 people.
