Right after I wrote the update, we had 2 volcanic eruptions and this time there is an ash cloud rising to 65,000 feet and it is heading my way. The status has been raised from orange to red. We have a weather advisory of the ash fallout hiting us in about 2 hours. I will be shutting down my computer before the ash falls. If we do get the ash, I will take photos of the ash falling, take macro shots of the ash particles and take photos of the ash on top of the snow.
