USGS Update 2006-Sep-07 09:20

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 predominantly to the south.

Recent observations: It is sunny again at the volcano today. Monitoring instruments indicate the eruption continues unabated, accompanied by small earthquakes and occasional larger events with magnitude around M3. Monitoring data show no significant changes at the volcano in the past 24 hours.
