USGS Update 2007-Mar-05 08:53

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 northeastward.

Recent observations: Cloudy conditions prevail at the mountain this morning, but the crater is clear beneath the cloud cover. Small earthquakes, characteristic of the eruption, continue and are unchanged from recent levels.
