Mt. Fitzherbert
USGS Update 2008-Jan-22 13:38
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 west-southwest.
Recent observations: The Mount St. Helens VolcanoCam rewards us with beautiful views into the crater. Field crews prepare for a potential field day tomorrow of gas measurements and instrument maintenance. And volcanic activity evidenced by earthquakes and deformation continues.
