USGS Update 2004-Dec-11 09:30

Wind forecasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), coupled with eruption models, show that ash clouds that rise above the crater rim today would drift east-northeastward.

Recent observations: The volcano is partly visible this morning on the VolcanoCam and is clearly visible from the Portland metropolitan area. No steam plume is evident. Overnight rainfall increased stream flows, but the acoustic flow monitors recorded no lahars. No field work is planned for today.
