That was probably Mt. Hood you saw, which is pretty cool. You can see it from Portland, Oregon. In 2000 I went to Mt. St. Helens. It's huge, and very spectacular. The 5 - 10 mile radius around it is all barren. There was even a little river that was bone dry, and the part where the water would be as still gray and solid. I highly doubt this will be as bad as the explosion in 1980.
