Great photo justme. I love seeing comparison shots like that. Where did you find them? If you dont mind me asking.


here is the link for the the full page of that Full Page

I have no idea how I found it but I bookmarked it and check it daily-- they seem to update it when the weather is good and they can get some pictures from planes or helicopters. It is a part of the USGS Mt. St. Helen site.

That has been a lucky pic, because I cannot see it again...



Seems volcanic activity is increasing... Have you seen the quake activity at St. Helens?

Here you go val.

Mt. Rainier cam


St. Helens is getting a little exciting.


ok, fixed the link. It is back to being frozen now. I wonder what unfroze everything. That seems really odd especially for this time of year.

Thank you so much (in advance)!


Well, I guess I'll share since the other link doesn't seem to work...

Cascade Volcano WebCams

Has the webcam links for the following (and then some):

Brittish Columbia
Mount Meager
Mount Cayley
Mount Garibaldi

Washington
Mount Baker
Glacier Peak
Mount Rainier
Mount Adams
Mount Saint Helens

Oregon
Mount Hood
Mount Jefferson
Mount Washington
Mount Bachelor
Three Sisters
Newberry Volcano
Diamond Peak
Mount Bailey
Mount Thielsen
Mount McLoughlin

California
Medicine Lake Volcano
Mount Shasta

It also includes some in Arizona, Alaska, New Mexico, Hawaii and Mexico.

Rainier

St. Helens

It is clear on all the graphs, I just used these two for examples.


mrs...

Go back to the beginning of this thread and you will see that this has been my concern all along. That these two volcanoes are connected through a common magma pool. When you are dealing with a thixotropic fluid such as magma some strange things could occur if two volcanos are connected to the same magma pool and one volcano's "plug" was to appreciably move.

I will try to find my various posts on my concerns and my theories and put them in one post as a follow-up.

Very good observation!

Here you go mrs. Here are my theories. Now, I'm just a seismic/volcanic groupie, so my theories are worth what you paid for them (lol), but it is interesting you have noticed the communication between these two volcanoes, so I submit this for your review.

Here is something I theorized on about the thixotropic nature of magma and how things could occur due to the "gel strength" of a magmatic plug:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

And then here on page 8 of this thread I explain my concerns about communication between MSH and Rainier:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

The problem this could reflect (IMHO) is that there is a wave traveling through a magmatic channel (i.e. same big pot of magma). Now, if MHS were to blow significant enough to have a large resultant magma flow, there could be the chance that a "draw" on Rainier could occur.

Now, in this post that I made many moon ago, I speculated on the thixotropy and gel strength that could possibly come into play in magma columns:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

Basically, if you take into account a magma column being "capped" by a thixotropic layer of magma, then what you're looking at is a stopper on top of a pressurized column of fluid. Now, the magma capping this isn't necessarily solid, but has achieved a sufficient gel strength to act semi-solid (read the above post). If a draw-down were to occur below this cap (i.e. some of the molten magma column were to be drawn toward MSH), then a dynamic flow situation would ensue below the cap. The evacuated region would cause an insufficient hydraulic head to maintain the pressurized column below.

So...if the ELP traces we are seeing are indications of communication between MSH and Rainier, I think it's worth keeping an eye on!
