Yes, that's true but we live near the volcona, 20kmish... all 14kmish radius have been evacuated... Our car is pretty much covered with 5inch thick ash and the air is really bad... My neighbors dog died from inhaling the air #RIP...
I like not too far from White Island (the volcano that erupted not too long ago) yet it didn't smell of sulfur unlike when the Hawaiian Volcano erupted seems odd to me
