Better monitoring for volcano near Seattle
Posted: Sep 24, 2014 1SEATTLE (AP) - The U. S. Geological Survey is starting to improve monitoring of Glacier Peak, a Cascades volcano in eastern Snohomish County.
It's the closest volcano to Seattle - just 70 miles northeast of the city.
The office of Congresswoman Suzan DelBene says improved monitoring will lead to better forecasting of possible eruptions. Currently, Glacier Peak has only one seismic station.
