Mt. Redoubt erupted again Wednesday morning at 5:12. The plume from that event did not travel about 15 thousand feet above sea level. Another small event occurred at 10:17. The plume from that event was not detected by radar which indicates the plume did not rise above 12 thousand feet and it contained very little ash. The explosion caused what scientists are calling a flowage event on the north side of the volcano.
