i voted for the third option...sorta.
I think the eruption is pretty much over. I do expect, however, some lava to ooze out and potentially cause a small lahar.

It's going to be the geological equivelent of a mild fart.

It already errupted 3 hours before this post started (erruption was at 12:03 PST).

It went up 2,000 feet and was just steam with some ash.
The quakes have significantly slowed down, so they're pretty much figuring that was it. These kind of erruptions happened a ton between 1981? through 1986 which was when the last erruption occured.
And just FYI - I live 50 miles from St. Helens. I can see it on a clear day.

where is the "Mt. Saint Helens is going to blow up so catastrophically, it caused a veritable nuclear winter, forcing the world into hiding for the next 1000 years. During the time, man will develop the uncanny ability to tunnel with a newly evolved third arm."?

It did blow up catastrophically in 1980 and all that happened is we got a few inches (I think - wasn't born yet) of ash here. Well, everywhere actually. Ash landed in many places around the globe.

That fits under "Mt. St. Helens is going to have a larger eruption than in 1980"

Where are you Jadan?
And yeah, people have been evacutated back to 10 miles. They're saying there's a 50% of something significant happening within 36 hours as magma is moving towards the surface.
Press conference in 30.

Whom ever voted for the first option, a larger erruption than in 1980, should realize that it is not possible.

i doubt it will be any bigger than in 1980, most likely it'll be the geological "fart" as dakian says
