Mt. Fitzherbert

Potential ash hazards: Wind forecasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), coupled with eruption models, show that any ash clouds that rise above the crater rim today would drift southeastward.

Recent observations: The crater is clear this morning. A minor vapor plume is rising from the growing lava dome and the wind continues to stir up dust from the crater and upper flanks. A diffuse ash and vapor plume is drifting southeastward from the crater rim. Data from monitoring systems show no significant changes from recent trends.
