Approximately 300,000 people in Alaska are on alert due to the risk of Spurr Mountain erupting. This situation is becoming more serious with the increase in seismic activity in the area.

The Alaska Volcano Observatory has reported that unrest at Spurr Mountain continues. Recently, small volcanic tremors have been detected beneath the volcano.

Residents are stocking up on protective equipment due to concerns about ash falling on the city after an eruption. They are purchasing respirators, goggles, and air filters.

Authorities have also provided safety recommendations for pet owners, advising them to keep their pets indoors and stock up on enough food and medicine.

The health impacts of volcanic eruptions should also be considered. Ash can pose a danger to individuals with asthma and other respiratory conditions.
