because it is all snow,
no
That depends on the size of the eruption and the wind speed and direction. In all likely hood, though, Seattle would not see much ashfall, as the prevailing winds would tend to carry the ash eastward, away from the city.
There's a Mount Rainier, Maryland that you can make in 15 hours at that rate. If you want to go all the way to Washington, it's 38 and 1/2 hours.
Mount Saint Helens is actually both viloent andquiet
all are volcanoes

They are all volcanoes with lava having a high water content and thus producing highly explosive eruptions.

Mount Etna, Mount St. Helens and Mount Vesuvius are all active volcanoes. They have also all undergone plinian eruptions (named after the famous Vesuvius eruption of AD 79. The Mount St. Helens eruption was unique in that the blast projected laterally as opposed to vertically. See related link.
There were 4 large eruptions of Mount Aso, from 300,000 BC to 90,000 BC. They were all very powerful, explosive eruptions. The last was the most powerful, probably as powerful as the Santorini eruption of c. 1620 BC, or some 4 times more powerful than that of Krakatoa in 1883.
