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 NE.

Recent observations: The mountain is quietly being buried in snow today, as are we, and our instruments indicate that it is seismically quiet, but that growth of the lava dome continues unabated. We will not have visibility until this winter storm passes, and hope that it does not knock out too many installations around the mountain.
