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 eastward.

Recent observations: Instruments and observations are barely able to detect slow extrusion of the lava spine. Currently seismicity is nearly at background levels, with an occasional M1-M2 earthquake every few hours. There is some visibility into the crater today, but scientists will not have access to service instruments until next week.
