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 south.

Recent observations: MSH is socked in this morning, but not drowning in rain. No notable rain-related seismicity or lahars have been registered by flow-and seismic-monitoring networks since yesterdays update. Several telemetered monitoring stations are still off-line since the storm earlier this week, and are presumed hors de combat. Current seismicity is normal, typical of the last weeks and months.
