When Mount St. Helens erupted in 1980, a massive explosion caused the top of the mountain to collapse, triggering a lateral blast that leveled trees and structures in its path. Hot gas and ash cloud reached speeds of up to 670 mph and devastated an area of 230 square miles, killing 57 people and causing significant destruction. The eruption also resulted in a massive ash cloud that spread across several states.
