Omnious Sign

[HereWeGoAgain]

Sounds like an ominous sign indeed.

The animals tend to know impending danger.

All that's needed is for people to get out of the blast zone.

It's not that big of a deal.

I've lived through the main blow up of St. Helens and all the smaller ones after. Yes it made a mess. Yes it's a natural disaster.

No it's not the end of America.

What about two years of volcanic winter? If the blast is that big, the amount of dust and debris in the atmosphere will block sunlight, etc. keep crops from growing, etc. A big volcanic explosion in 1815 in Indonesia caused a couple of very crummy years in the US. It snowed in Maine in June and July. The winters were so cold that even Mainers were freezing to death in their own yards.
How deadly is year without a summer?
Year Without a Summer. The year 1816 is known as the Year Without a Summer(also the Poverty Year and Eighteen Hundred and Froze To Death) because of severe climate abnormalities that caused average global temperatures to decrease by 0.4–0.7 °C (0.7–1.3 °F).

Yes I forgot about that. Yes the ash did block the sun for a couple of years. It was bad.

It didn't kill anyone.

It didn't destroy the nation. It didn't destroy Washington.

We got through it. We're Americans. We can do anything we set our minds too.

Washington cleaned up the mess and we moved on.

However I find it very short sighted to believe a volcano is going to blow just because someone said animals are leaving the area. Animals leave the area when there's a fire too. No verification that animals are leaving. No seizmatic activity. No changes in the mountain.

I'll go with science. Not chicken little.

Holy shit!!!
You've totally ignored all the proof that says you are flat out wrong.
This isnt anything like Mt Saint Helen. The Caldera is 40 fuken miles across!!!


"Yellowstone Caldera, enormous crater in the western-central portion of Yellowstone National Park, northwestern Wyoming, that was formed by a cataclysmic volcanic eruption some 640,000 years ago. It measures approximately 30 by 45 miles (50 by 70 km), covering a large area of the park"

You're coming across as a complete idiot here.

Well, regardless of the science, I will fall back on an existential truth that will keep all of you safe, at least for my lifetime.

Don't worry. Nothing exciting EVER happens to me.

It's the ash thats the problem.
It'll cover the vast majority of the US.

That's a lot of red state area. That'll be a lot of thoughts & prayers if it happens.

It's all good.
Calipornia would get wiped out and Texas would fine.

Look at the map...not the coast...not San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San DIego. But the red inland area................thoughts & prayers.

It all depends on the wind. Which direction it's blowing.

Usually the wind and storms in the west part of the nation come from the west. Sometimes it comes from the north and south but usually the west.

So which ever way the wind blows, that's the direction the ash and debris will go.

Which was you said, to the middle part of America.

No dumbshit....it's the jet stream at high altitudes that will spread the ash and they generally flow west to east.
Were you stoned throughout high school?

I'm not as lucky as you are.

I guess I'm used to it. I've lived here all my life. I experienced my first earthquake at the age of 4. I remember it very well. I grew up with earthquake drills with the fire drills in school. We also had tsunami and volcano drills.

We don't have hurricanes or tornados or typhoons.

In the nearly 59 years I've lived here there has never been a tsunami. Mt. Rainier is fine except for climate change messing it up. Mt. St. Helens blew up but as with everything, we got through it. So did Mother Nature.

I have tons of photos of the eruption but they're all on film and not digitized. I go to Windy Ridge at least once a year to see the progress Mother Nature has made through the winter and document the progress.

When the mountain blew up Spirit lake was vaporized. Literally. The lake was gone. All that was left was white ash and logs. Now most of the lake is back. You can see the white ash and logs in just small areas of the lake now.

Not so now. The following photos were take last August. The route to the blast zone is above Spirit Lake. It's called Windy Ridge. That road is only passable in the late summer because of snow.

Yes that's what I said.

The wind and weather comes mostly from the west which blows eastward. Which means the wind will blow the ash east. Not west.

Is english your second language?

However we do get wind and weather from the north and south. In fact, that's how we get snow here. Cold air from the north hitting the warm wet air from the southwest. We get most of our weather from Hawaii which is south west from us. Those clouds cross the ocean. They pick up moisture as they cross then dumps on us. Which is why we're known for so much rain. It's called the Pineapple Express here. That weather moves east across the nation. It picks up more moisture when it crosses the Great Lakes then dumps when it hits NY state in the form of snow in the winter.

So if that mountain blows, the wind will blow most of everything east. Into the middle and eastern section of the nation.

Not the west. All of us here won't get any of it but we will send people to help those who do get it. Our EMT, firefighters and Rescue train for volcano eruptions here.

It's funny to me that someone would actually believe a story about animals from a website. Without any verification. Without any seismic activity. Without any changes to the mountain.

Seems to me I'm not the stupid person here. I didn't get high in school. I actually paid attention. I went to college and got a degree too. In accounting and finance.

Either English is your second language or you just like to lie and call me names needlessly.

Thousands of animals are leaving the Yellowstone volcano area.

The Eruption of that volcano in Yellowstone could very likely mean the end of America...and it could happen at any time and the arrogant,ignorant and Godless nation that America has become would be no more.

Ya cant argue with a moron I guess. Even when I've posted multiple articles from the USGS saying you're wrong you just cant give it up.

Example model output of possible ash distribution from a month-long Yellowstone supereruption. Results vary depending on wind and eruption conditions. Historical winds for January 2001 used here.

This is from the usgs-
USGS: Volcano Hazards Program YVO Yellowstone


Did you learn anything new of scientific interest through this modeling?
Yes, we learned that supereruptions distribute ash in a fundamentally different pattern than smaller eruptions by creating an umbrella cloud that can push ash more than a thousand kilometers upwind. The mapped pattern of ash deposition from weaker eruptions looks roughly like a fan, spreading downwind from the volcano; while that from a supereruption looks more like a bull's eye, centered on the volcano. A powerfully spreading umbrella cloud means that ash dispersal is much less affected by atmospheric winds.

What's happening geologically at Yellowstone now?
Seismicity and ground deformation are within historical norms. The caldera started moving up this year after about four years of slow subsidence. Earthquakeswere more abundant early in 2014 than in mid 2014, especially in the area near the Norris Geyser Basin.

Is there any evidence that Yellowstone will erupt soon?
No. Yellowstone is behaving as it has for the past 140 years. And geological evidence indicates that similar or higher rates of earthquakes, ground uplift and steam explosions were experienced at Yellowstone over much of the past ~10,000 years. Odds are very high that Yellowstone will be eruption- free for the coming centuries.

If Yellowstone erupts, will it be the "big one" modeled in this recent article?
Almost certainly not. The past 20 eruptions at Yellowstone have been lava flows with no significant amounts of ash fall outside of Yellowstone. The past 60-80 eruptions would have had little regional (or continental) impact.

How will you know if an eruption is beginning?
Yellowstone hasn't erupted for 70,000 years, so it's going to take some impressive earthquakes and ground uplift to get things started. Besides intense earthquake swarms (with many earthquakes above M4 or M5) we expect rapid and notable uplift around the caldera (possibly tens of inches per year). Finally, rising magma will cause explosions from the boiling-temperature geothermal reservoirs. Even with explosions, earthquakes, and notable ground uplift, the most likely volcanic eruptions would be the type that would have minimal affect outside the park itself.

For the person who said that an eruption at Yellowstone would make St. Helens look like a firecracker you need to read the following:

Almost certainly not. The past 20 eruptions at Yellowstone have been lava flows with no significant amounts of ash fall outside of Yellowstone. The past 60-80 eruptions would have had little regional (or continental) impact.

The truth of the situation is that an eruption in Yellowstone would be a firecracker compared to St. Helens.

People really need to stop believing people who say that animals are leaving so an eruption is coming and it will destroy America.

You're being lied to.

It's not going to happen in your lifetime.

For similar reasons why Rainier isn't going to blow up.

What it comes down to is pressure is relieved on a regular basis.

Yellowstone has geysers. We have small earthquakes. Both relieve pressure thus making an eruption much less likely.

Which is why natives to my area are like me and just laugh when people talk about Rainier blowing up.

What we have to worry about with Mt. Rainier is climate change. It's not getting enough snow and moisture anymore. Ice caves are melting. Big areas of no snow are now on several parts of the mountain that should have snow. The Nisqualy River's source is the glacier of Rainer. That used to be a huge raging river. Now it's just a trickle that I can step over. Streams and creeks that feed into that river are drying up too. It's very horrifying to see.

I'm free and clear here in southeast Texas....as long as the low level winds cooperate. Hope if it happens it happens in the summer with our prevailing wind out of the south.

Sounds like an ominous sign indeed.

The animals tend to know impending danger.

All that's needed is for people to get out of the blast zone.

It's not that big of a deal.

I've lived through the main blow up of St. Helens and all the smaller ones after. Yes it made a mess. Yes it's a natural disaster.

No it's not the end of America.

St. Helens is a teeny tiny baby compared to the Yellowstone caldera. The caldera is a supervolcano. Think Krakatoa.

An eruption of the Yellowstone caldera would destroy much of the western half of the United States and create a volcanic winter killing millions world wide.

The leftist lunatics are blaming climate change.

Thousands of animals probably leave certain areas in Yellowstone every year in a migratory grazing herd but you can make a conspiracy theory out of it if you watch too many Nat. Geo programs.

Did you say that God created an unstable planet to play creator upon?

I think the citizens of
Pompeii could answer your question

The prophet Isaiah warns us that in the last days God is going to “turn the world upside down.” He declares, “Behold, the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down” (Isaiah 24:1).

With the Republican Party giving us Trump,
followed by Democrats producing Cortez?

Yep, totally backwards world flipped upside down!
