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 a more eastward trajectory later in the day.

Recent observations: Clouds obscure the volcano this morning. Overnight there has been no significant change in seismic or other activity. Recent analyses of images from remote cameras at the mountain show clearly that a spine of lava, broadly covered by rockfall debris, continues to emerge.
