Southeast Pennsylvania and western Virginia reported as St. Helens The oozing lava formed a new lobe on the dome about 80-100 feet thick and was flowing down the side of the dome, Brantley said. The lava had not reached the crater floor, he said. He estimated 500,000 to million cubic feet of material was moving. Television crews flying around the crater said a steam plume rose 1,000 feet above the peak and that they could feel heat from the volcano.

Scientists expect the eruption will probably continue for two or three days. Last week, scientists predicted that the peak would erupt within two weeks and warned that it could be an explosive instead of a dome-building eruption.
