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 broadly around the mountain at low elevations early and east-northeastward later. At higher elevations, ash clouds would drift east-southeastward.

Recent observations: Clear conditions reveal the volcano emitting a wispy plume this morning. As the day progresses, a stronger steam plume may develop. Overnight, there have been no significant changes in the level of activity.
