CoachVolcanologists believe Mt. St. Helens will erupt again because it is an active volcano with a history of explosive eruptions. Monitoring data shows ongoing volcanic activity, such as earthquakes and deformation, indicating that the volcano is still active and building pressure beneath the surface. This suggests that another eruption is possible in the future.

Why is mt st helens called a volcano when it does not erupt?
It does erupt, just not all the time. Many volcanoes go through quiet periods of years and even centuries between eruptions. Mount St. Helens is known for a massive explosive eruption that ocurred on May 18, 1980. The volcano also produced a series of small eruptions from 2004 to 2008 and has since been quite. It will erupt again some day, though we do not know when.
