Mount Michael emits a dense white plume
In a satellite image from 24th March 2019 as viewed on Sentinel Hub, a dense white plume is seen originating from Mount Michael on Saunders Island then drifting northeast. While viewed on the Atmospheric Penetration filter, you could see that the plume is at it's most dense closer to the volcano while the aerosols look apparent towards the end of the plume. While it is not certain that an eruption is taking place, I wouldn't rule out that possibility and I wouldn't be surprised if the plume had some ash content.
