Alaska Asset Team Update, Thurs., Jan 29, 11:57 a.m.

Status Report as of 1/29/08 11:57 a.m. from the Alaska Volcano Observatory

Unrest at Redoubt Volcano continues. Seismicity has remained at a relatively constant level for the past 24 hours, and is still well above background.

Web camera views are currently obscured by clouds and ice on the camera housing. Satellite views of the volcano have been mostly cloudy for the past day, but a possible weak steam plume was observed by satellite this morning.

The current activity at Redoubt could be precursory to an eruption, perhaps within days. A further increase in seismicity is expected to accompany an eruption. Staff are currently monitoring the volcano 24 hours a day.
