REDOUBT - Latest Report On Pending Eruption: I will ask Alaska friends about this report!

REDOUBT - Latest Report On Pending Eruption

MWM: An eruption at this volcano is likely pending during the next 30 days.
It has the potential to send major ash clouds through SW Alaska and then on
through the Northern Hemisphere. It is a young, virulent volcano whose last
great crater forming episode was in the era of the flight of Phoenix 4.
Another major eruption was recorded for the era of Santerini, the explosive
eruption which ended the corrupted era of Egypt and opened the way for the
rise of the New Kingdom, whence all western euro people history directly
commences. Undoubtedly, Redoubt is connected to human history.

Accordingly,it is well worthwhile paying close attention to this major tectonic address which may be a harbinger of crust-shifting dynamics. As of the 3rd of
February, the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO), reported that unrest at
Redoubt Volcano continues. Seismic activity remains elevated and is well
above background levels. A vapour plume is intermittently visible in the AVO
web camera. It appears to rise no higher than the volcano's summit. An
observation and gas-measurement flight to the volcano is en route now. The
AVO staff are currently monitoring the volcano 24 hours a day. AVO will
issue further information as it becomes available. Redoubt is a 3108-m-high
glacier-covered stratovolcano with a breached summit crater in Lake Clark
National Park about 170 km SW of Anchorage. Next to Mt. Spurr, Redoubt has
been the most active Holocene volcano in the upper Cook Inlet.
