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 north to northeast.

Recent observations: Views of the crater from cameras at Johnston Ridge Observatory are caliginous. There have been no changes in background levels of seismicity or motion of the growing dome. Plans for field work continue for later in the week, despite a relatively wet weather forecast.
