Small, brief explosions were detected at the volcano yesterday evening (21:29 UTC or 12:29 AKST) and this morning at 4:06 UTC (19:06 AKST local time), USGS reported.

While there were no satellite images available of the volcano after the explosion, it’s unlikely that a minor ash cloud was generated, AVO writes.

“Similar such explosions may continue without warning, and may produce minor ash clouds that are not expected to extend much beyond the volcano, but could produce local fallout on the flanks of the volcano. AVO has received no reports of activity from local observers.”

The agency has received no reports of additional activity from local observers.

The brief outburst detected on Monday was similar to one that occurred on Saturday.

Cleveland is a restless volcano that sees multiple changes in its status annually. In May the volcano was put on orange alert after detection of a possible explosion, and the most recent minor ash emissions were observed in November 2012.

The volcano forms the western half of Chuginadak Island, a remote island in the east central Aleutians, 940 miles from Anchorage.

Cleveland was on yellow alert on Tuesday morning.
