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 would be pushed broadly to the north this morning and afternoon by weak low-level winds and to the east with upper-level winds. By this evening winds at all levels will shift toward the north and northeast.

Recent observations: The crater is clear this morning, and a weak plume of condensed water vapor can be seen. Seismicity continues to be very low, with relatively small earthquakes and rockfalls occurring sporadically. A gas flight may go out today to measure gases escaping from the vent.
