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 north or northeast.

Recent observations: A strong Pacific storm is mostly obscuring views of the volcano from Johnston Ridge and elsewhere this morning, and forecasts suggest that a spate of wet weather will likely continue to do so for the next few days. Telemetered data from seismic and ground deformation sensors show no change from established patterns, indicating continued extrusion and dome growth.
