Mt. Saint Helens ash

I may not be able to blog about Hurricanes like Buzz and Ernie, but maybe I can blog re:  Mt. Saint Helens ash.  An ash forecast can be found here.  I live in Boise, ID 83709, in the south-western portion of Idaho.  When Mt. Saint Helens last majorly erupted, I was living outside Idaho Falls, ID 83401.  Everything was covered in ~1/4 inch of ash even that far away.  Pretty amazing.
