Mt. Fitzherbert

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 today would drift to the southwest again today, toward the Portland-Vancouver area.

Recent observations: The sky is clear over the volcano this morning; the crater is visible. Low-level seismicity continued through the night to this morning, accompanied by a few small rockfalls, as growth of the new lava dome continues. Viewing conditions should remain good through the day.
