Cleveland volcano:
Aviation Color Code - ORANGE
Volcano Alert Level - WATCH
CLEVELAND VOLCANO (CAVW #1101-24-)
52°49'20" N 169°56'42" W, Summit Elevation 5676 ft (1730 m)
Current Volcano Alert Level: WATCH
Current Aviation Color Code: ORANGE
Cloudy conditions obscured views of Cleveland by satellite over the last 24 hours. As of February 2, the new lava dome covers the floor of the 650 ft (200 m) diameter summit crater. AVO has received no other reports of activity.
The development of a lava dome in the summit crater indicates that sudden explosions of blocks and ash are possible with little or no warning. Ash clouds, if produced, could exceed 20,000 feet above sea level. If a large ash-producing event occurs, nearby seismic, infrasound, or volcanic lightning networks should alert AVO staff quickly. However, for some events, a delay of several hours is possible. There is no real-time seismic monitoring network on Mount Cleveland and AVO is unable to track activity in real time.
