USGS Update 2006-Aug-16 09:30

Potential ash hazards: Wind forecasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), coupled with eruption models, show that any ash clouds rising above the crater rim would drift to the northeast this morning and to the south in the afternoon.

Recent observations: The crater is obscured by clouds this morning. No significant changes in seismicity or ground deformation have been detected in the past 24 hours, and seismicity remains generally low.
