Martin 1994/12

Start: December 5, 1994 [1]

Event Type: Not an eruption

Event Characteristics:
  • Meterologic clouds - no eruption [1]

Description: From Neal and others (1995): "The Weather Forecast unit at Elmendorf Air Force Base reported a plume-like cloud originating from the general region of the Katmai group and moving toward Kodiak Island on December 5 [1994]. A satellite image indicated a possible hot spot at the source of the plume which appeared to be near the Mageik-Martin-Trident volcano cluster. AVO and NWS checks of concurrent satellite imagery showed nothing unusual and it was concluded that this was a meterological phenomenon."
