Mt. Colima in Mexico spews mysterious ash cloud

This shows that the Volcano is pretty much active. It was only a light ash cloud comming from the volcano that soon dissapated the next day. Volcanoes here in Mexico and in Northern North America ( Mt. Ranier ) are becomming geologically active.

What, exactly, is "mysterious" about an ash cloud? Colima is the most active volcano in Mexico and has been for years, and does this all the time.

And there is zip, zero, nada, activity at Mt. Rainier.

There's nothing striking or unusual about North American volcano activity in the slightest.

Mysterious as in it happend suddenly, there was no warning or anything it just suddenly came out of the volcano...and as quickly and silently as it came out it dissapated. I i was kinda referring to Mt. Ranier because when Mt. St. Helens erupted...Mt. Renier was getting active and it hasnt erupted in a while. Usually when volcanoes show signs of activity then stay quiet for a while..that means lava is flowing to the volcano and collecting in the lava chamber in the mountain. I wouldnt be surprised if activity started again with Ranier.
