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 to the north-northeast.

Recent observations: Unsettled weather continues at the mountain today making visual observations difficult. Instruments show no significant change in patterns of seismicity or deformation. Seismicity continues as series of small earthquakes every few minutes. No earthquakes as large as M2 have been recorded in the last 24 hours. The active dome continues to build with motion to the west at about 1 meter per day, consistent with observations made over the past three weeks. Monitoring data are within the range of typical recent values.
