Alaska Asset Team Update on Mt Redoubt, Friday, Feb 6, 1:29 a.m. (AST)

Two intense tremors today following a relatively quiet spell over the past three days.

According to the latest report from the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) Web site (http://www.avo.alaska.edu) unrest at Redoubt Volcano continues. Seismic activity remains elevated well above background levels.

AVO seismometers recorded two bursts of more intense tremor today. National Weather Service radar, pilot observations, and a brief web camera glimpse of the volcano late this afternoon confirmed that no eruption occurred. Following this burst, background tremor has remained elevated relative to the past several days.
