massive tsunami.

Large plume billows
from Mount St. Helens
MOUNT ST. HELENS, Wash. —
Mount St. Helens released a towering
plume of ash on Tliesday, marking
the most spectacular eruption
in months.
Late afternoon television footage
showed the plume billowing thou
sands of feet into the air, then drifting
slowly to the northeast.
The National Weather Service is
sued an ashfall advisory after pilots
reported spotting ash higher than
30,000 feet, National Weather Service
meterologist Danny Mercer said.
The explosion happened around
5:25 p.m., about an hour after a 2.0
magnitude quake rumbled on the
east side of the mountain, said Bill
Steele, coordinator of the Pacific
Northwest Seismograph Network at
the University of Washington.
