Yeah, it's not so exciting. Sadly, there is no nice fluid lava with the Cascade volcanoes since they're stratovolcanoes. The magma is very thick because of a high silicon content and it tends to go BOOM rather than flow. So until a lava dome builds and starts to puff up, there shouldn't be anything really exciting. Hawaii has all the luck...
