Volcanic eruption in the Aleutian's.
Observation: Mt. Pavlof, about 55 miles west of Sand Point located on the Shumagin Islands is at it again. The volcano has been erupting for a couple days now, and we've watched the ash plumes. This morning, June 3, 2014, ash was found on vehicles around town. The volcano is on code red, and we haven't had any flights into Sand Point since Saturday. Mt. Pavlof was erupting around this same time last year. Ash has made its way to the community. It's important for the community to know and practice safety. When you step outside you can smell the sulfur from the volcano. We are telling the community to be cautious when outdoors today. Karis Porcinucula and Jasmine Maligaya
LEO says: The Alaska Volcano Observatory's (AVO), component agencies distribute information regarding volcanic activity in Alaska each Friday. During eruptions, written statements that include the location, time, size of the eruption, and narrative descriptions of projected plume paths, are distributed to federal, state, and local government agencies, the public, the media, commercial airlines, and others by pre-programmed facsimile machines and electronic mail systems. Anyone can subscribe to receive these messages through the Volcano Notification Service by signing up.
