There are some pretty impressive photos that have been taken in the last couple of days. Most of you probably know that Mount Redoubt has been gearing up for a couple of months now. Here's a previous post on the topic showing the proximity of the volcano to Anchorage. The last couple of days, she has really been belching and exploding. This is from yesterday, March 27th.

This is my Kid-mobile. That is not snow. The ash has been coming down for a few hours. It's windy so it's accumulating like snow drifts.
This is a foot print in my yard. All the gray particles are ash.
Here's the Kid-mobile from inside the house. I was on strict orders not to go outside. Just getting the two pictures above caused severe eye-watering and nose-running. Ash is nasty stuff.
I believe we'll be staying inside tomorrow.
