USGS Update 2005-Jul-18 08:45
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 over a sector extending eastwards to east-southeastwards of the volcano.
Recent observations: Following the M 3.2 earthquake on 07/16 seismicity returned to normal levels. The crater and new lava dome are clear this morning, and pictures from the Sugarbowl camera indicate that the dome is continuing to grow. Seismicity and ground-deformation data indicate that no significant changes have occurred in the level of activity over the last 24 hours.
