Guest guest Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 YIKES! We live in Seattle and its been on the news for quite some time now. Hopefully the 'burp' will make it ease up a little. Gosh! All us diabetics need is more stress to raise our bg's. Ken GreyEagle -- our mountain burped! - OT In case anyone is interested, you can go to www.kgw.com and check out the latest " burp " that Mt. St. Helens just spewed. I'm sure it won't be the last but after waiting all week for it to do SOMETHING, I'm glad it finally did. I'm supposed to spend tomorrow morning watching my nieces play soccer in a town that is right at the base of the mountain (only about 35 miles from here). I think I'll stay home! tee hee! Have a great weekend, everyone! Carolyn Portland, OR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 Its a long ways. Neither us in the Seattle area or your brother in Bremerton would be in any kind of life threatening danger. The worst that would happen to us is ash if the wind blew the right direction. We're 3 or so hours north of Portland, 3 1/2 hours if you go the speed limit and Helens is to the North East of Portland if I remember right. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I think Mt Baker is the next big one. However, when Mt St Helens did it's big bit last time (1988) it blew ash at least as far as Idaho. As for earthquakes and tremors, it's pretty far away to effect us. We'd be lucky to even feel it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
