ANCHORAGE, Alaska (KTUU) – Alaska is home to more than 140 volcanoes. Nearly 100 of those are active, including Mount Spurr just over 75 miles west of Anchorage.
On Volcano Watch, we take a deep dive into the science of Mount Spurr and the chances it will erupt again, what we’ve learned from past eruptions, and the new tools we have to better predict the next one.
We also look at what the true threats are, what you need to be concerned about, and some things you shouldn’t do.
From the history to the science, to practical tips, if and when ashfall occurs, we have the latest information on Volcano Watch.
