"It's like a desert, it's desolate, it's apocalyptic. The whole place is covered in gray ash," Ralph Gonsalves, the prime minister of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, told CNN about the communities impacted by the eruptions. It's been 42 years since La Soufrière volcano -- French for sulfur outlet -- erupted.
