ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- Seismic activity at Mount Redoubt has increased over the last 24 hours, according to the Alaska Volcano Observatory and a steam and ash plume rising above the volcano increased in size dramatically in the 9 o'clock hour Sunday night.
The AVO reports on its Web site that activity "appears to be gaining intensity. Seismic activity has increased markedly in the last 24 hours, showing stronger volcanic tremor and more frequent rockfall events."
Late Sunday night scientists at AVO said that an explosive eruption is now more likely in the next few days than it has been in the last few weeks.
The alert level remains at orange. Clear views from AVO cameras show a plume rising to 18,000 feet above sea level. AVO also reports minor ash emissions.
Redoubt has not had an explosive eruption since April 4 when the volcano created an ash fall along the Kenai Peninsula. An eruption on March 28 forced the closure of Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport for about 20 hours.
The first series of explosive events began March 22 when Redoubt ended months of anticipation with six powerful blasts.

Well I can't say morning....good afternoon/evening. It's 4:30pm already. I didn't get my internet hooked up until around 1 this afternoon and have been working ever since. We got everything moved. Most of it was done Fri and a little more on Sat. We then bbq'd for everyone Sat evening. We have most of it unpacked already too. Well I guess I can't say we're ALL moved because we are missing our youngest cat. She got scared and crawled up inside the ceiling in the basement at the old house. We can't get her to come out. Any ideas?? We do have to go back and clean that house yet this week too. I love love love my new house. And yes, Jamie, parking in the garage is awesome!! I'm loving having a dishwasher as well...haven't had one in a long time. Once we find the charger for the camera I'll take some pictures LOL. We took a break yesterday and took Sadie to the circus. She loved it. Her favorite part was the elephants. Well, I better get back to work. Just wanted to check in!

Court, glad you had a nice weekend.
Michelle, hopefully, most of the labor intensive moving is all done. And, just unpacking is left.
Have a GREAT day, ladies!!!!

I am planning on just enjoying the great weather here!!! Not too much planned, maybe we can get the garage cleaned out tomorrow, and haul DH's aunt's leftover yard sale stuff back to her house, so that I can park in the garage again.
