A friend of mine flew over it yesterday and took this photo. The ash punched itself all the way to the stratosphere this time.

This is a big caliber area in terms of....trouble by the way. Just hope it peters out soon.

Right because when ash gets in the lungs it forms an almost concrete mixture, but having your roof cave in isn't any better? You need to put a cloth over your mouth and get under something with a sturdier roof.

I have a feeling that the government of a volcanic island has a little bit better idea of what to do in this situation than you do.
Just saying.
