at sunset it was an incredible clear day, so the ash has not reached us.

MVO says there was another small explosion at 20:17

Here is the information about the overnight eruption.

http://www.montserratvolcanoobservatory ... 95&lang=es

At 1:28 am on Sunday 10th January 2010 a seismic signal was recorded which indicated that another explosion had occurred at Soufriere Hills volcano. The signal lasted approximately 7 minutes and was of a smaller size than the signal associated with the explosion on Friday afternoon. Light ashfall was experienced in Salem and Flemings immediately after the event. Recordings made by the thermal cameras indicate that the event produced pyroclastic flows that moved rapidly to the northeast possibly down Whites Bottom and Tuitts Ghaut. Flows also travelled to the northwest down Tyers Ghaut, but do not appear to have reached the Belham Valley. Pyroclastic flows also moved towards Plymouth down the Gages valley. It is not clear at present whether any flows went into the Tar River Vally of if they actually reached the sea.

report from stormcarib.com Montserrat correspondent:

Silica in ash

* By "Paul & Beth" <sheriff at candw.ms>
* Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2010 12:11:25 -0400

Yes, there is silica in the ash. There is ongoing testing of individuals by doctors who are studying the effect of ash on the lungs. To date, after years of testing there has not been found any harmful effects from the ash to lung function. I'm not positive but you might go to the MVO website and look at all the papers that have been written about different aspects of the volcano. The reports from the doctors should be there.If not, you could e-mail the MVO and they would know where to find it.

I am in Zone B, the evacuated area. We are allowed into our homes from 6:30 am to 5:30 pm 7 days a week. We are not allowed to sleep in our homes at night. Since the explosive event on January 8 the Isles Bay side of the Belham has no access. Unfortunately, this is where Tina Bretton's home is. I hope everyone will keep Tina and her family in your prayers. To say we're all stressed is putting it mildly.

Hopefully, no one will be getting any ash today as the wind is going to the southwest. It is a good chance to sweep,shovel and cart the ash away from yesterday. This is a daily occurrence for us. Then we go out to our night time residence where we can do the same thing there.

So everybody, get out your hymnbook and look up "Showers of Blessings" and SING!!!!! We haven't had rain since New Year's Eve and we're desperate.

Looking forward to another ash free day,

Beth
