Volcano Update

From the Alaska Volcano Observatory

Current Level of Concern Color Code: YELLOW
The level of seismic activity at Augustine Volcano remains above background. On Friday afternoon, December, 2, 2005, AVO scientists made an aerial over flight of Augustine and although partially shrouded in clouds, no unusual activity or outward signs of unrest were observed. Clouds have obscured the volcano in web camera and satellite views during the past week and there are no new visual observations to report. Conditions at the volcano have changed little during the past week and there are no indications that an eruption is imminent.

Beginning December, 1st, 2005, AVO began operation of a web camera for visual observation of Augustine volcano from a vantage point near Homer. Images are posted to the AVO web site every 5 minutes.
