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 east to southeastward early shifting to southeastward by afternoon.

Recent observations: Clouds preclude visual observations of Mount St. Helens this morning. Seismicity at the volcano remains at levels typical of the past few weeks.
