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 this morning, shifting to eastward this afternoon.

Recent observations: Low clouds continue to obscure the volcano this morning, but glimpses yesterday showed that it is now blanketed with fresh snow down to elevations of about 4000 feet. More snow is expected today. Seismicity and deformation persist at the low levels typical of recent months as lava extrusion continues. No significant changes have occurred in the last 24 hours.
