Activity under Three Sisters volcanic region monitored by experts

1. Interesting story. "Eruption not expected"...but..

Does this mean an eruption is on its way? Montgomery-Brown says that’s not expected. The uplift isn’t the only type of clue.

But if Sisters is showing signs of activity, what does that mean for other Cascade volcanoes?

“The individual volcanoes are all part of the Cascade chain,” Tobin said. “But they are all individual volcanoes — they have a separate sort of plumbing system of magma. But something happening down there at Sisters in Oregon doesn’t mean that Mount Rainier is going to change its activity.”
