Rain and ash fall on vehicles in a parking lot at Papaga Agricultural College. Clark Air Base personnel evacuated to this area, 55 miles from the base, to escape the ash and debris resulting from the eruption of Mount Pinatubo, a volcano that came alive on June 10 for the first time in over 600 years. More than 20,000 evacuees have been removed from the area as part of the U.S. military's Operation Fiery Vigil
