Alaska volcano, Mount Redoubt, may erupt at any time, according to scientists. According to the AP, the Volcano is building pressure and may erupt in a near future. City officials are under emergency response alertness and instructing the population of Anchorage the appropriate emergency response procedures.

Mount Redoubt, or Redoubt Volcano, is an active stratovolcano in the largely volcanic Aleutian Range of Alaska. The mountain is also the highest within the range, and among the highest peaks in Alaska. It is located in the Chigmit Mountains (a subrange of the Aleutians), west of Cook Inlet, about 180 km (110 miles) southwest of Anchorage, Alaska. The Alaska Volcano Observatory currently rates Redoubt as Aviation Alert Level Orange and Volcano Alert Level Watch. On January 25, 2009, the Alaska Volcano Observatory warned that Redoubt may erupt within "hours or days". [1] On January 28, 2009, the AVO released an information statement stating that an eruption similiar to its 1989/1990 event is the most likely scenario.
