At this point ash is headed toward Fairbanks area. In the past they have flown to Fairbanks then bused to Anch. May very well resort to that again. This picture taken tonight from Homer by Dennis Anderson, of the 7:30 PM eruption. Nice job Dennis!

We had quite a rush of men coming into the store this evening looking for panty hose. Made for some fun comments and some red faces 
Not sure if we have any ash here yet with all the road dirt on the snow you cant really tell.

So if they are contractions, what next a plume of lava?
Would be neat see a new bunch of land forming and some lava cams set up there. May even be a good excuse to fly out that way and get some neat shots of the flows... after the ash stops flying around though, that stuff will eat an engine faster than you can afford to rebuild it. |

It seems the seismic thingy is not working? At least not here. Anyone else?

 Oops, wrong key!
My hub is stuck on the Slope, due to the cancelled flights. A couple other people I know have not been able to rotate up. A few flights left Prudhoe the other day but stopped in Fairbanks. I've been told it is pretty crowded up there, due to this mess up in flight schedules.
My hub flies on the BP/Conoco Phillips Shared Services planes, they haven't moved in a couple of days. |
