The Alaska Volcano Observatory raised the alert level of the volcano to the second highest („orange“) yesterday (5 Aug 2021), following the observation of minor explosive activity present at the summit crater:
„Clear web camera views of Pavlof Volcano this morning indicate episodic low-level ash emissions are occurring. Intermittent bursts of ash from the summit are producing diffuse ash clouds that are rising just above the summit (summit elevation 8261 ft above sea level) and drifting southeast roughly 6 mi before dissipating.
„Seismic and infrasound data indicate that activity consists of occasional small explosions and tremor. The ash emissions indicate an active eruption in progress thus the Alaska Volcano Observatory is raising the Aviation Color Code and Alert Level to ORANGE/WATCH.“ (AVO)
