The Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) Darwin warned of a thick ash plume rising to an estimate 40,000 feet (12.2 km) on Friday; however, ground observations weren’t able to confirm the plume’s exact height.

Just hours later though, HIMAWARI-8 confirmed a 30,000 foot eruption, which in turn was followed by a number of 35,000-footers.
