USGS Update 2007-Jan-13 08:58

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 southward.

Recent observations: The low level of background seismicity continues, punctuated by the occasional larger quake (M1.5+). There have been no changes in eruptive behavior in the past 24 hours. Field observations on Thursday suggest that lava forming the new dome continues to slowly extrude.
