Volcano!

Step back, we have a volcano fully errupting after 20 years! I guess yesterday Augustine volcano errupted 5 times & it may not be finished yet.

Alaska Airlines canceled 43 flights yesterday & 23 flights today because of the ash in the air. Some schools are closing because of smoke & ash. The volcano is about 60 miles away from Homer, Alaska.

Go to the Alaska Volcano Observatory website to see the latest updates http://www.avo.alaska.edu
