I would not be the least surprised if it just kind of fizzled out.

For now.

Doubtful... it can rumble for months before it blows. I wouldn't stop keeping a close eye on it.

Engines breathe too.

I would be more worried about my outboard, as they do not have air filters, get caught in ashfall and destroy an engine. I've been told it only takes 8 oz of dirt to wear out an engine (over its life, however long or short).

However, volcanic ash isn't "dirt"... it would be similar to taking very finely powdered sand blasting abrasive compound and running that through your motor. All the unfiltered 2-strokes and similar small engines can be quickly destroyed by ash. Summer is a terrible time for an eruption and the ash will not only fall, but will continue to be blown around by every breeze and all the vehicle traffic for weeks to months afterward.

I won the office pool.

How many people here were betting on when it would blow> and how many people were growing tired of the geologists reports thinking it was never going to happen... One guy in my office pool chose January 2020 as his date.
