I have been following the volcano, Mt. Redoubt, in Alaska with great anticipation. For a couple of weeks now vulcanologists have claimed it is ready to go at any minute. It has been venting plenty of steam, the glaciers on one side have melted away to half the size in a matter of days and the earthquakes continue to swarm. The link below is to the camera atop an observatory a few mile away from redoubt. The picture is updated every several minutes.

I know besides loss of life, volcanoes can cause sever damage to infrastructure, machines and cars, but I really want to see this baby go. I can't help it.
