Mt. Redoubt reaches 14 eruptions



I guess the title says it all. Mt. Redoubt erupted for the 14th time just a little over an hour ago. Just some quick facts regarding Mt. Redoubt's explosions affecting Alaska.

*Anchorage has been lucky to have missed most of the ash fall.
*The airport is completely dead so any type of air travel is really bunked up right now.
*The Alaska Volcano Observatory believes that this period of active eruptions will continue for as long as several months.
*You can find more info. regarding Mt. Redoubt HERE, and pictures HERE.
