Atrocities, are you in danger?

Re: NEWS: MT. St Helens just erupted
 

From what I can tell its a low level eruption between 5k to 20k. Hard to tell from here. But interesting none the less. Its getting hard to see now through the trees. I will have to drive drown the road to see the full moutain.

No danger for us. We live about 50 miles to the south west of the mt in Vancouver / Richfield area.

Quit impressive to look at, is it not. I am probably closer to it than you are Atrocities. The mountain is due east of here.

EDIT: Got my directions messed up.

It's not an eruption, but an emission. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Yep, I'm in Washington, but all I ever hear about is Portland and Oregon. I just listen to the radio usually. They get the news out faster. Usually hear something on the radio a day or two before the TV news has anything to say about it.
