USGS Update 2007-Feb-18 09:46

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 northeast early, shifting to southeast later in the day.

Recent observations: The eruption continues as slow extrusion accompanied by small earthquakes and rockfalls, occasionally punctuated by larger earthquakes. There have been no significant changes in activity over the past 24 hours.
