During an eruption, if the wind is from the east at 10,000 feet (outflow), the tephra will fall on Vancouver, Canada in about an hour. If the winds are from the west (inflow) the tephra will fall on Merritt, BC in about 40 minutes. There are extremes in preparedness, of course. As a basis of my work I use the 2015 Profile of Earthquake Risk in the District of North Vancouver by Earthquake Canada, wherein they state that there is 30% chance of a M7.3 in the middle of the Salish Sea, say between North Vancouver, Nanaimo and Victoria, in the next 50 years, that will bring down 839 buildings, just among the 80,000 residents in the District of North Vancouver.

I hope you enjoy my recent photograph of 3,288 m (10,786 ft) Mt. Baker Stratovolcano (Kulshan). The United States Geological Service rates it a VERY HIGH RISK [https://www.usgs.gov/volcanoes/mount-baker/volcanic-hazards-mount-baker].
Around 5:30-7:15am. If it is a clear day I can see forever. I took this photograph just after the sun had come up over the mountains in the east, around the Coquihalla / Chilliwack / Hope area as the sun's rays struck the bottoms of the clouds overhead, but before the sun cleared Mount Seymour and the local mountains. I never photo-shop anything, ever. Just get up in the morning.
