USGS Update 2006-Feb-20 10:00
Potential ash hazards: Wind forecasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), coupled with eruption models, show that ash clouds that rise above the crater rim today would drift south-southwestward to south-southeastward.
Recent observations: No significant changes in patterns of eruptive behavior have occurred during the past day. The weather forecast for the coming week suggests that field operations are unlikely as clouds and snow return to the mountains.
