avalanche triggered by an earthquake measuring 5.1 on the Richter scale caused the eruption. The avalanche reduced the elevation of the mountain's summit from 9,677 ft (2,950 m) to 8,363 ft (2,549 m), leaving a 1 mile (1.6 km) wide horseshoe-shaped crater. The debris avalanche was up to 0.7 cubic miles (2.9 km3) in volume. An ash cloud of 80,000ft high rose into the sky. It got so dark street lights had to be turned on. The whole ash cloud went across the US in 3 days. As with most other…
