Brian I was going to ask you about this but you beat me to it. Can you see any of the fallout?

Is it gonna turn your white crap grey?

Ice
Your airport is reporting ash on all surfaces
Bill

Thank goodness it's not in your back yard...........................

none here yet.
snow is still white and nothing on the trucks.
too far away too see any actual eruption activity.

airports both Willow and Talkeetna are on hills, right here i am in kind of a low spot.

last time we had fallout here was from a big forest fire, 1/8 to 1/4 inch of ash all over everything.

still, i will have a personal experience with molten metal, soon as i go outside and fire up the flame wrench.

Were you still in bed when she said that Brian?

Fire & Iceman-great combination.

Alan, this is from the news:

Eight Australians on a backcountry tour holed up in Shell Lake Lodge near Skwentna, about 100 miles northwest of Anchorage, waiting for the ash to settle.

“It’s a good half inch, it’s a pretty heavy dusting,” Craig Saunders, a Palmer man leading the group on an eight-day snowmobile tour of the Alaska wilds, said Monday.

I guess it is the volcano that won"t quit. Explosive eruptions all week. Trace ash fall in Anchorage tonight. Google AVO. com for latest news.

Eight Australians over there at once!, no wounder it`s so quite around here!

well, the ash finally came here, was mixed in the snow saturday night, did not notice until the snow melted and left gray film all over everything.

see where the gas can was setting

Brian how far away from it are you? Seems like it took some time to get there. Or that long to fall back to the ground after it was sent into orbit.

There have been approximately 15 eruption over thr last 10 days. It takes about 4 to 6 hrs for the ash to reach us in anchorage about 100 miles from Redoubt I think Brian is about the same distance.
