What are ash deposits from a volcano?
When a volcano erupts explosively, some of the molten rock is ejected in the form of small particles. These cool to form tiny pieces of volcanic glass. Clouds of volcanic ash either race down the sides of a volcano in avalanches called pyroclastic flows, or fall to earth like snow from tall eruption plumes. In either form volcanic ash can be dangerous. Pyroclastic flows are extremely hot, burning almost everithing in their paths. Falling ash has had time to cool, but still prsents hazards. It is very dense and can cause roofs to collapse. It clogs engines and interferes with electical equipment. It can damage the lungs if inhaled. Volcanic ash can also mix with water from rain or melting glaciers to form deadly mudflows called lahars.

Is lava considered weather?
Lava is not weather, it is the result of a volcano eruption. The eruption itself can cause weather issues such as falling ash and clouds, but lava is not considered "weather".
What is a volcanic bomb and what causes it?
It is simply the name for a piece of molten rock (larger than 2.5 inches) thrown out of a volcano during an eruption. Despite the name, they generally do not explode (ignore movie special effects) but can be a hazard- large bits of VERY hot rock falling out of the sky.
How many people survived the Mount Vesuvius eruption of the first century?
A few hundred. These were people who left before the final eruption. The ash and soot covered 65 acres of land and anyone who was there did not survive. They died of suffocation, the heat and gasses the volcano emitted, or were buried by the ash and volcanic rocks, or walls, buildings, roofs falling on them. It is hard to give an exact number of people because the total population of the area is not known.
Can a volcano kill people?
yes, from the rocks falling or the lava burning them or the big black smoke that comes after the eruption
