Correct. The OP must be too young to remember the one where the whole side of the mountain blew off - what was the name of it? Mt. St. Helen's, maybe?
Yep. May 18, 1980.....I remember that Sunday morning well.
. I remember it like it was yesterday. Have Cousins in Yakima, they had several inches of ash on the ground, it was like driving on ice. It turned dark in the middle of the afternoon. I won a lottery for the first 50 People to fish Spirit Lake after the eruption 5 years later.
