So now we need to wait for news of a tornado and a hurricane.

Hopefully the volcano isn't doing anything major, and it's just acting up some. They already have enough to deal with.

That is tough, they just can't catch a break. Thanks for the pics.

According to Associated Press, Japan's weather agency says a volcano in southern Japan has resumed eruptions of ash. The Meteorological Agency issued a warning saying that Shinmoedake volcano had resumed shooting out gas, boulders and ash after a couple weeks of inactivity. The mountain is on the other side of Japan from the epicenter of Friday's magnitude 8.9 earthquake and resulting tsunami, which devastated much of the country's northeast coast. It was unclear if the eruptions were linked to quake.
