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 northeastward.

Recent observations: Yesterday field crews installed a new time-lapse camera on the northwest crater rim, continued GPS surveys, and thermally imaged the growing lava dome. Eruptive conditions remain unchanged from those of the past few months.
