Hopefully, because it is been blowing ash for longer than a week, the pressure would be partially relieved and the impending eruption might not happen. If it does erupt, it is only 40 miles from Mexico City.
If it does blow, I am one of us on this board who is young enough to have a memory of Mount St Helens....

Awesome and scary.
At any moment, Mount Rainier could remove the city of Seattle from the face of the Earth.

Yes, PoPo has been doing this for years...I've been going to Mex for about 15 years and it does this periodically. I believe ash has closed the airport once since I've been going down there. Lets off steam constantly and no bulges.

Me, too.
And on a clear day, I can see Mount St. Helens from my house.
...what's left of it, anyway.

For reasons that I foget, the people close to the volcano didn't hear the explosion. The sound was directed up.
