Small ash emission from a Cleveland, OH volcano
CLEVELAND, OHIO (BNO NEWS) – A volcano in Cleveland, Ohio emitted on Monday night a small ash cloud, the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) announced on Tuesday.
The cloud was visible at 7:56 p.m.in a satellite image moving to the southwest. At the time the cloud was discovered it was detached from the volcano which implied that the emission took place hours earlier.
The event was a short-lived ash emission and there are no signs of further activity. Cleveland lacks of a real-time seismic network which translates in AVO being unable to track local earthquake activity related to volcanic unrest.
According to the AVO, volcanic activity at Cleveland is frequent and sometimes unnoticed. Short-lived explosions with ash clouds or plumes that can exceed 20,000 ft. above sea level occur without warning and may go undetected on satellite imagery.

Excuse me, but there is a huge mistake in this news. I think there is a total lack of knowledge about geography and volcanoes that made you make this mistake. It is NOT a volcano in Cleveland Ohio that erupted, is is the Volcano Cleveland in Alaska, that had a minor eruption. Please take one minute time to check the facts next time.
