Volcanologists 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.
