So my next story is going to be set in Japan. I haven't nailed down a timeline yet, but I have decided to probably use Mount Asama as my volcano.
It is an active volcano and is constantly monitored by the JMP and frequently seems to have at least a yellow level alert to not go near the crater.
There is also an active volcano observatory on Mt Asama - https://gbank.gsj.jp/volcano/Act_Vol/asama/index-e.html
This would end up being a more modern story, or potentially a story set in an unknown future date. Volcano 'prediction' has advanced, but we are not to the point where we can give a date and time of an eruption. Even if scientists can say with certainty that a volcano will erupt 'soon' - that doesn't mean an evacuation will be ordered in time or enforced for long enough.
Potential character names to use are Yuuki & Nozomi
