Sinabung, Agung and Dukono are rumbling all the time. At the moment only Dukono has a sigmet, see below. The FL in that sigmet of 070 is the usual level, but with some recent spikes to 160/180. A recent hickup of Agung caused cancellations of a few hundred flights for a few days. You can find posts on that in the rumors list.
