Cool stuff indeed. One thing to note, ash plumes cause more than their fair share of lightning without needing an actual storm system because of static charge buildup. That's one of the more distinct dangers that comes out of being in the vicinity of a plinian-type eruption, is lightning strikes.

Edit: @ Husar, This (http://galacticcentral.org/imagebucket/volcano.jpg) is the highest res version of the pic I could find.
