Re: Pavlof Volcano --old photo

Hello Marianne - Yes, we are always interested in seeing old volcano photographs - particularly ones with a date! Pavlof was active so often between 1936 and 1948 that we have it as one eruption in our database (although likely it was many short explosive events, with periods of non-eruption inbetween.) It would be great to flesh out that timeline a little better (esp. with photographic evidence.) http://www.avo.alaska.edu/volcanoes/volcact.php?volcname=Pavlof&eruptionid=… If you could send me a scan of the picture, or the picture itself (I would scan it and send the original back to you), that would be wonderful. Thank you for thinking of us, Cheryl Cameron AVO-DGGS 3354 College Road Fairbanks, AK 99709 -------- MarianneSchlegelmilch wrote: Today I found an old photograph that is labeled in pencil on the back as "Pavlof Volcano 1943". It is a black and white photoâ��about 2X3" or maybe slightly largerâ�� that shows mountains with a large cloud of black smoke above one of them. It belonged to my father who was stationed in Cold Bay in WWII. Is this photo of any value or interest to AVO? Did Pavlof volcano erupt that year?I don't see it as doing so on your website I live in Homer. Thanks.

Re: Cleveland Volcano

Hello Delicia - Cleveland is about 940 miles southwest of Anchorage. It is *extremely* unlikely that any ground-level ash from an explosive eruption at Cleveland would make it to Anchorage. Absolutely, do not worry about it. The current effusive eruption (lava dome) at Cleveland is not currently producing any ash at all. In the event that volcanic ash is forecasted to fall on Anchorage (more likely from an eruption of one of the Cook Inlet volcanoes - much closer to Anchorage) then there would be notifications through many channels: our website, the weather radio, your community's emergency management services, and local news. You might also be interested in these websites: http://pafc.arh.noaa.gov/volcano.php http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/ash/ Hope this was helpful, Cheryl Cameron -------- Delicia Ramirez wrote: In regards to the Cleveland Volcano: How far is it from Anchorage? And if it were to spit ash, how far would it reach out(as in distance from volcano. would it reach to Anchorage)? Would there be warning on the news or radio? Thank you. -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050

Hello Robert - Telemetry for our entire Wrangell network isn't working. We're working on it, though. (Apologies for the lack of data - we wish we had it, too!)
