ANCHORAGE, Alaska  —  Mount Redoubt continues to rumble and simmer, prompting geologists to say this Alaska volcano could erupt "perhaps within hours to days."

Scientists from the Alaska Volcano Observatory have been monitoring activity round-the-clock since the weekend.

If Mount Redoubt does erupt, it would be the first time this occurred in nearly 20 years. And it won't likely be pretty.

History shows that volcanoes in Alaska, including Redoubt, typically erupt explosively, shooting ash almost eight miles high.

This differs from volcanoes in Hawaii, which usually have slow rolling lava ooze out.

Yeah right Dylan.  It is nice being at home?  IT was kind of hard for me to work at home two days with the crazy 5 year old running around!  I loved it though.

It's nice, especially since we never lost power (lucky us).  I know I'm not going to be too happy when I'm in school in June.  By then I'll have two new gardens to water and one to plant, right now all I can do is stare at the frozen ground and read my gardening books.  :(

Right now I'm reading Second Nature by Michael Pollan. Fantastic read! I don't think there are many gardeners on the boards though so I might be talking to myself.

Sorry to go so far off-topic.  Damn you, Goose!
