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 east-northeastward.

Recent observations: Activity continues as it has in previous days to weeks. Modest size earthquakes (M2+), some which appear to be associated with rockfalls, episodically punctuate the very low level of background seismicity. An clear image from one of our remote cameras several days ago shows that the lava dome continues to slowly extrude.
