Mt. St. Helens Vents Another Plume of Steam
From Times Wire Reports
Mt. St. Helens erupted a new column of steam that rose from the volcano’s snow-dusted crater.
The plume came from an area where a large bulge had been growing on the dome-shaped formation of rock in the crater.
The plume rose several hundred feet above the 8,364-foot volcano, and a light wind slowly blew it south and southeast.
