Why did Mount St. Helens erupt?

Is mount st Helens going to erupt again in the future?

  • Answer:

    Mount St. Helens has been emitting steam and building crater structures since its 1980 eruption, and could have another large eruption in the future. Scientists have been trying to accurately measure the magma pool beneath the mountain and the surrounding area of the Cascades. In September and October, 2004, vented magma began forming a lava dome, replacing part of the mountaintop blown off on May 18, 1980. This process continued for nearly 4 years until July, 2008.
