To the best of my knowledge, Thai visa extensions because of the volcano have not been announced YET, but it is still Songkran week there plus the government has had other concerns of late. If some sort of extension is to be offered it probably wouldn't be announced until Monday Thai time at the earliest, but your airline may have some information about how these situations have been handled over the last few days. The overstay penalty is normally 500 baht per day (max. 20,000), but I don't think it will come to that.
