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 to the northeast.

Recent observations: Clouds are intermittently obscuring views of the crater this morning, a condition likely to continue as the forecast calls for a chance of showers this afternoon. Seismicity continues to be low and is dominated by rockfalls from the growing new dome as well as glacier-related activity.
