Mount St Helens could erupt again as scientists closely monitor a lava dome rising at five metres a day. A USGS scientist adds:”What is really phenomenal is how much rock is still coming out of the ground. It’s now taller than the Empire State building. It’s coming up at five metres a day, more than 200 metres wide and it’s right here in our back yard.“

Right in my backyard.

The 5-meter a day rise in molten rock actually happened 15 years ago during the 2004 and 2005 eruption
Geologic behavior such as (but not limited to) that described is why I'm unwilling to live anywhere on the West Coast. That information, of course, is of no use to you.
I suggest you move, or at least move out of the way. You can't stop a volcano's eruption and pyroclastic flows, but you can get the hell out of their way if you get to movin' soon enough.

Apparently we are suffering the effects of a British Tabloid claim going viral.
You fell for a con Cat.
I remember when it blew the last time.
I will pray for you!
I am 426 miles downwind of Mount St Helens and 287 miles from the Yellowstone Caldera.
Both of them are getting funky!
Looks like I picked a bad time to move to the North West.
If Yellowstone blows there's not many places in the US that you can go to escape the effects. Bottom tips of Florida and Texas is about all....and that's just the immediate obvious effects.
We had ash all over the place where I lived.
Same here... we lived near Grant High School.

When I said backyard, I'm safe. Now if Mt. Rainer blows, I'm screwed.
I'm in SE Portland, a stones throw away from Gresham now. Back then, I lived in The Dalles.
The entire world would be ****ed. It'd cause a major climate shift.
You must have one hell of a huge backyard. The two volcanoes are only ~50 miles apart and the last Mt. St. Helens blast affected/devastated a huge area.
