While the volcano has had 20 to 25 sporadic eruptions since lava domes began to form in 2011, there has not been any amount of sustained eruptions such as the ones the volcano is currently experiencing, according to the Daily Mail.

Currently the Alaska Volcano Observatory is monitoring the event. The Cleveland Volcano is located on the uninhabited Chuginadak Island in the Aleutian Islands. The main threat it posses would be to aircraft and mariners.

"It's got us all paying attention. We're not sure if it will escalate or do what Cleveland does, which is to settle down after small explosions," said Rick Wessels of the Alaska Volcano Observatory.

There are currently no restrictions on air flight above the volcano. However, the USA Today reported that the aviation alert level has been raised from level yellow to level orange.

"Sudden explosions of blocks and ash are possible with little or no warning," scientists told the publication. "Ash clouds, if produced, could exceed 20,000 feet above sea level."

Ash clouds have only reached 15,000 feet and while the volcano lies in the path of Asia to North America flight, jets travel around 35,000 feet.
