Mt. Redoubt Volcano - Current Update

ALASKA VOLCANO OBSERVATORY CURRENT STATUS REPORT

Thursday, September 9, 2010 11:52 AM AKDT (Thursday, September 9, 2010 19:52 UTC)

CLEVELAND VOLCANO (CAVW #1101-24-)
52°49'20" N 169°56'42" W, Summit Elevation 5676 ft (1730 m)
Current Volcano Alert Level: ADVISORY
Current Aviation Color Code: YELLOW

Satellite views of Cleveland volcano are obscured by clouds today. Clear views last night indicated no activity at the volcano. AVO has received no reports of activity from pilots or mariners.

Without a real-time seismic network at Cleveland, AVO is unable to track local earthquake activity related to volcanic unrest. Short-lived explosions with ash clouds that could exceed 20,000 ft above sea level can occur without warning and may go undetected on satellite imagery for hours. Low-level ash emissions at Cleveland occur frequently and do not necessarily mean a larger eruption is imminent. AVO continues to monitor the volcano using satellite imagery.
