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 southeast.

Recent observations: The new high definition camera at JRO reveals another clear and sunny day at Mount St. Helens. Low levels of seismicity persist indicating slow dome growth continues and is punctuated by occasional rocks falls. Technicians and geologists are working in and around the volcano today, servicing instruments, making observations, etc.
