This one has calmed and poses no hazard; if you'll notice the date on the news blurb, it's over a year old. But, there are several others in Indonesia that have been put on alert. I think I posted this info last week.

Authorities have established a six-kilometer (3.7-mile) zone of exclusion around the volcano and evacuated 30,000 people.On Monday, a six-hour-long eruption produced an unusual sight: two plumes of ash spewing out of the top of the volcano (bottom). Little is known about the volcano's history, which is last thought to have erupted 400 years ago, but the forked ash clouds are likely due to a blockage in the volcano's main vent.
