Hat Tip Drudge - New Eruption At Mount St. Helens
MOUNT ST. HELENS NATIONAL MONUMENT, Wash. -- Mount St. Helens is erupting again.
Steam and ash began shooting from the mountain about 9:44 a.m., pictures from KIRO 7 Eyewitness News showed. The eruption was confirmed by U.S. Geological Survey scientist Willie Scott. "Yup, yup, that's a eruption" | The clouds appears to be mostly white. Scott said whatever ash is in it will probably fall in the crater and on the mountain itself. The ash cloud is moving slowly to the northeast. There was another small steam burst at 10:40 Sunday night and earthquakes indicate the volcano is active.
