Thread: Supervolcano ready to explode in US

This is not a joke.

The supervolcano in the Yellostone region is about the explode.

More youtubes, articles, and explanation to follow.

You heard it here first!

They have been saying this for a quite a few years now but so far so good. One thing is for sure though....when it blows , stand well back. In fact, way way back as in , the other side of the planet.

There has been a lot of activity lately, although what that signifies is anybody's guess. Could just be letting off pressure. If not, well, get ready for another mini-Ice Age, global warming problem solved!

Makes me want to shriek!

Hundreds of Quakes Are Rattling Yellowstone

DENVER — In the last two weeks, more than 100 mostly tiny earthquakes a day, on average, have rattled a remote area of Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, putting scientists who monitor the park’s strange and volatile geology on alert.

Researchers say that for now, the earthquake cluster, or swarm — the second-largest ever recorded in the park — is more a cause for curiosity than alarm. The quake zone, about 10 miles northwest of the Old Faithful geyser, has shown little indication, they said, of building toward a larger event, like a volcanic eruption of the type that last ravaged the Yellowstone region tens of thousands of years ago.

The area is far from any road or community, and the park is relatively empty in winter. Swarms of small quakes, including a significant swarm last year, are relatively common.

But at a time when the disastrous earthquake in Haiti on Jan. 12 has refocused global attention on the earth’s immense store of tectonic energy, scientists say that the Yellowstone swarm, if only because of its volume, bears close observation: as of Sunday, there had been 1,608 quakes since Jan. 17.

Yes if that goes off in a big way, and it is a big if, it will make man's efforts at planetary destruction seem like a gnat's fart on a wind day.

Never mind the other side of the planet, try the southern hemisphere.

REPENT NOW THE END IS NIGH.

But, supposing it does erupt, will the World Cup still go ahead?

Anyway, bed time. See you all tomorrow if we're all still here.

^, the SHTF.

I'm in Antigua and can see Montserrat from here, she is puffing away like an old steam train. be a nice quick tsunami if it blew but better she lets off steam and not build up pressure. If Yellowstone blows we are all foked.

Could be worse, could be raining..!

Time to sell your house and donate the money to the local priest.

Been watching 2012 have we milky, ?

The scream?

Sunset allegedly from the Krakatoa eruption...although I'm aware this is disputed.

I got some groceries, some peanut butter
to last a couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers
ain't got no headphones
ain't got no records to play

Nothing new under the Sun. It's all happened before and will do so again. Last time they reckon was 70,000 years ago when Mount Toba exploded precipitating a near extinction event for the then world's population. Geneticists tracing man's development reckon we are all descended from a common gene pool comprising between 1,000 and 10,000 folk that survived the catastrophe.

Not sure if their research also includes the Welsh or homosexuals.
