Who is at Risk? 

While the west coast certainly has the most to be concerned about with the strength of some of these volcanos we should all be cautious.

The first thing to realize about any volcano is that if it has erupted in the past 10,000 years it is considered to be a viable threat of another eruption.  Right now I believe that these are the biggest threats to the United States when it comes to volcanic activity.

• Alaska (Redoubt Volcano,Pavlof).
  Monday, March 28, 2016 when the state's largest volcano, Pavlof, erupted and spewed ashes Alaska's 20,000 feet into air! Pavlov volcano, 600 miles southwest of Anchorage, is the most consistent of volcanoes having sent plumes rising 27,000 feet in 2013 to as much as 49,000 feet in other eruptions. The aviation warning is at red, the highest alert.
  
• Arizona (Sunset Crater)
  
• California (Mt. Lassen, Mt. Shasta,)
  
• Colorado (Dotsero)
  
• Hawaii  (Kilauea Volcano, Mauna Loa Volcano)
  
• Idaho (Borah Peak)
  
• Nevada
  
• New Mexico
  
• Oregon (Crater Lake Volcano, South Sister Volcano, Mt.
  Hood)
  
• Texas
  
• Washington State (Mt. Rainier, Mt. St. Helens)
  
• Wyoming (the Super Volcano: Yellowstone)
  

So what can we do? Well, let's look at step 1. It may not be an option for many but its the most obvious one so we will start there.

1. Move away from a volcano

The volcanic action is mostly located in the Western United States, so if you live on the East Coast or Midwest you can sigh a little bit of relief.  You'll find a few volcanoes in Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, and South Dakota, but most are out West. 

Not wanting to move or live out east but still need to prepare..here is what you should grab first
