    Mexico's Popocatepetl volcano blasts out ash

    MEXICO CITY (AP) — The Popocatepetl (po-po-ka-TEH-peh-tel) volcano south of Mexico City is shooting blasts of ash from its crater.

    Mexico's national disaster prevention agency says the volcano has spewed ash more than a half mile (a kilometer) into the sky four times Tuesday. It says there is a possibility ash could fall onto Mexico City overnight.

    The agency is urging people to stay at least 7 miles (12 kilometers) from the crater.

    The 17,886-foot (5,450-meter) volcano is about 40 miles (65 kilometers) southeast of the capital.

      Right next to it is another large volcano, Ixtlazihuatl, what's it's status? More photos, please. FYI, parts of the valley of Mexico City is built on lava...

      My Mexican wife and my three american children are sleeping 12 miles from this volcano, it blows ash like this every other year or so. I really hope it doesn't do much more until after immigration will let me bring her and my kids ages 1,2, and 4 back to the us!

      Don't be surprised if you see a bunch of hot dog eating Gringos going up the volcano and trying inhale the volcanic smokes.

      "Popocatepetl" now there is a real Native American word for you Redneck Hicks, to scratch your head over.

        They need to pronounce it as (po-po-ka-TEH-peh-tel). I wished they put a picture of it. Oh well.

      Maybe the drug gangs will get all hopped up and decide to party on the volcanoes rim right before she blows. That would help Mexicos problems with gangs.

      Hope they throw the Zetas in that volcano.
