How did Mt. St. Helens affect you?

Probably not much...Islands of Puget Sound were North and West of the blast.
Winds were easterly when St. Helens erupted. I'm roughly 120 miles south and barely got a dusting...like a light talcum powder. It was the folks of points east who got buried...Spokane area...
