An active volcano near Alaska's most populated city could be on the brink of eruption, according to scientists who are constantly monitoring a potential threat.

A volcano near Alaska’s most populous city is showing signs it could be headed toward an eruption, officials said. Mount Spurr, which sits about 75 miles west of Anchorage, has seen “volcanic unrest” for the last 10 months,

A colossal volcano in Alaska is likely to erupt soon, scientists warn. Mount Spurr, an 11,000-foot-tall volcano on the Cook Inlet about 75 miles from Anchorage, has a 50-50 chance of spewing out hot magma and ash that could be toxic for humans to breathe,

Mount Spurr, a towering snow-capped stratovolcano in Alaska, has long been a source of scientific intrigue, but recent events have sparked serious concerns. The Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) has been closely monitoring an increase in seismic activity around the volcano since April 2024.
