Eruption news from Cleveland volcano:

Cleveland (Aleutian Islands, Alaska) volcano: small explosions detected

Tuesday Dec 31, 2013 09:04 AM | BY: T

Small, brief explosions were detected at the volcano yesterday evening (21:29 UTC or 12:29 AKST) and this morning at 4:06 UTC (19:06 AKST local time), USGS reported.
"No satellite images available after the time of the explosion, so uncertain if minor ash cloud generated, but unlikely.
"Similar such explosions may continue without warning, and may produce minor ash clouds that are not expected to extend much beyond the volcano, but could produce local fallout on the flanks of the volcano. AVO has received no reports of activity from local observers." (AVO/USGS)
