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.

#2  "Mt St Helens About to KBOOOOOOMMM"

I dunno about that. Just looked at the MSH webcam and it looks more to me like it's going "Pththththttttt!" than "KBOOOOOOMMM".

1980 was a real, no-shit KBOOOOOOMMM, roughly equivalent to a 10-megaton nuclear blast. This is about on a par to what I myself can achieve after a couple servings of Mom's Secret Recipe Boston Baked Beans.

Feh. Gimme a heads-up when she's REALLY ready to blow.
