Mt. Fitzherbert

Potential ash hazards: Wind forecasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), coupled with eruption models, show that any ash clouds that rise above the crater rim today would drift southeastward.

Recent observations: The volcano is once again obscured by clouds this morning. Seismic and deformation data continue trends of the past few weeks, from which we infer continued lava-dome growth. Crews are out today working on repairs to our radio communications system and installing new seismometers around the mountain.
