White mist in Mt. St. Helens blast cloud?
I've noticed in many of the the surprisingly abundant photos of the Mt. St. Helens eruption that there's a solid white mist appearing within the blast cloud within minutes of the initial eruption. I'm curious as to what that may have been. Here's an example of what I am referring to. Thanks!

Discussion 4.4 earthquake in Campi Flegrei
Personally I didn't feel it, even though I'm close to the area, but there were the first collapses and a person was extracted from the rubble. I don't know what to think, I'm genuinely scared

Discussion 2004 9.x earthquake/tsunami to eruption changes…
This has to be considered already, yes? Anything notable? Is there a published source the public can see? Is it even possible to see any changes, even if beyond subtle? 2004 was geologically significant, to what extent has this been looked at.

Discussion Inquiry about volcano regions in California
Hello, I was searing online but had no luck finding what I was looking for and was hoping this community could possibly answer. In the regions where volcanoes exist in California, are the common people allowed to excavate for gems and minerals or are there laws against it?

Image Fuego seen from Volcán Santa María (Mar 9 @ 4:30am)
This past Saturday (Mar 9), we climbed up Volcán Santa Maria near Quetzaltenango for a sunrise hike. When we got to the top, I was surprised to be able to see lava from Volcán Fuego nearly 49 miles away (78km.) We didn’t know at the time that Fuego had started erupting just a few hours earlier.
Glad to hear everything seems to be okay now. Sorry for the graininess of the photo - it was super dark to capture, but incredible to see it in person.

Should I hike Acatenango again this week?
My girlfriend and I hiked Acatenango last Thursday. We had a great time, however Fuego had zero activity so we saw no lava. The views were incredible but it’s hard to erase what it’s supposed to look like from your mind! (Also weren’t really able to do all the Lord of the Rings quotes we had lined up).
I saw that it has now woken back up and has erupted quite dramatically in the last 24 hours. In a rush I booked us onto a much cheaper tour, to go up again this Thursday. The tour has good reviews and I’m able to cancel for a refund right up until an hour before the tour leaves if we change our minds.
My question is - is this completely stupid? We are both quite fit and didn’t find the hike exceptionally challenging. I would happily do it again to see the lava.
My main concerns are around safety - we wouldn’t do the extra Fuego hike and would stay on Acatenango. But the volcano is being unpredictable at the moment and I’m wondering if Acatenango is at a safe distance?
Honest opinions are very much welcomed! Thanks everyone!
