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 southeast.

Recent observations: Clouds are obscuring views of the crater from Johnston Ridge this morning. Seismicity continues at a low background level typical of recent weeks. Slow growth of the lava dome continues.
