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 east-northeastward early and shift to southeastward trajectories later.
Recent observations: Inclement weather obscures the volcano today and prevents visual observations. Analyses of seismic and deformation data indicate that the dome continues to grow. Once new aerial photography has been analyzed, the size of the dome and any changes in long term rates of growth will be determined.
