USGS Update 2006-May-09 10:10
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 principally to the southeast.
Recent observations: Seismicity and motion of the west part of the new dome remain at levels typical of the past few days. Weather forecast calls for mostly sunny skies for the next few days, so the crater is likely to be visible from Johnston Ridge Observatory.
