I was 11 when it blew. The previous day, it was nice and sunny. Then gray hazy skies. I was watching the Mariners vs. the White Sox game, and they kept showing a split screen of the eruption and the game.

I was just shy of 10 years old in Spokane when that volcano erupted. I even got the I survived Mt. St. Helens t-shirt with the goofy little cartoon characters getting evicted by ash and rock

My mom was in Vancouver during the eruption and said it didn’t get any ash during the May 18th eruption but they did during the minor eruptions that occurred the following months. My dad was in the Mt. Baker area and didn’t know the volcano had erupted until they went to town.

I was five years old and I’ll never forget mainly because I was on the front page of the newspaper flying through the air. After my brother kicked me in my butt, the title tensions rise as eruption nears. No my brother was just a jerk. We were standing in line at a fire station waiting for a dust mask.

Had a little M1.9 at 39 miles deep just South of the mountain in the last 24 hours.

This is so interesting. I don't remember about this sight seeing flight. I was so worried about my brother who was supposedly driving on I 5 past that point at that moment. It turned out he'd gone south instead of north OMG we were so worried. And then I remember the footage and the poor old man that had died.
