USGS Update 2006-Feb-26 09:00
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 northeastward.
Recent observations: Mostly clear weather on Friday and Saturday afforded good views into the crater by field observers on Friday and by 2 of 4 cameras at the volcano that are currently free of snow and ice. Growth of the lava dome continues with no changes in previously reported patterns of seismicity or ground deformation.
