ALASKA VOLCANO OBSERVATORY STATUS REPORT
U.S. Geological Survey
Saturday, July 4, 2009, 12:31 PM AKDT (Saturday, July 4, 2009, 20:31 UTC)

REDOUBT VOLCANO (VNUM #313030)
60°29'7" N 152°44'38" W, Summit Elevation 10197 ft (3108 m)
Current Volcano Alert Level: ADVISORY
Current Aviation Color Code: YELLOW

No significant change has been observed at Redoubt in the last 24 hours. Seismicity at the volcano continues slightly above background level. Clear webcam views today show continued steaming from the lava dome. The lava dome remains potentially unstable. Collapse of the dome would likely result in high-level ash production, hot lava block and ash flows, and possible flooding in the Drift River valley.

AVO will continue to monitor Redoubt's activity closely, but will begin to transition off of 24/7 staffing.

CLEVELAND VOLCANO (VNUM #311240)
52°49'20" N 169°56'42" W, Summit Elevation 5676 ft (1730 m)
Current Volcano Alert Level: ADVISORY
Current Aviation Color Code: YELLOW

AVO has observed no further activity at Cleveland since the small eruption on June 25. Recent satellite and web camera views of the volcano have been obscured by clouds.
