I PREDICT MOUNT FUJI VOLCANO TO BLOW UP SHORTLY, let me explain....

Mount Fuji is the tallest volcano in Japan.
The mountain as it appears now is the "New Fuji volcano", which began to erupt about 10,000 years ago. Under the "New Fuji volcano" lie the "Komitake volcano", which became active 700,000 years ago, and the "Old Fuji volcano", which was active between 100,000 years ago and 10,000 years ago.

only a km deep, actually

Makes sense

Mud tsunami to roll than the hill if that happens.

Another huge eruption is Japan the other day, also awakened by the ring of fire rupture...

Stratovolcano

A stratovolcano, also known as a composite volcano,[1] is a tall, conical volcano built up by many layers (strata) of hardened lava, tephra, pumice, and volcanic ash. Unlike shield volcanoes, stratovolcanoes are characterized by a steep profile and periodic, explosive eruptions. The lava that flows from stratovolcanoes typically cools and hardens before spreading far due to high viscosity. The magma forming this lava is often felsic, having high-to-intermediate levels of silica (as in rhyolite, dacite, or andesite), with lesser amounts of less-viscous mafic magma. Extensive felsic lava flows are uncommon, but have travelled as far as 15 km (9.3 mi).[2]

Stratovolcanoes are sometimes called "composite volcanoes" because of their composite layered structure built up from sequential outpourings of eruptive materials. They are among the most common types of volcanoes, in contrast to the less common shield volcanoes. Two famous stratovolcanoes are Krakatoa, best known for its catastrophic eruption in 1883 and Vesuvius, famous for its destruction of the towns Pompeii and Herculaneum in AD79.

1km is default depth until reviewed by seismologist. You must be
Noobie to EQ watching. Even so, I wouldn't doubt that fuji is yawning about to wake up

no 10 Km is the default depth
If they say 1 then its very shallow

News conference on NHK TV

6,4 quake under Mount Fuji
Highly unusual
Exact spot where the 2 tect plates meet

So will the volcanic ash fallout be enough to cover Fukushima? What does this mean for the ground water supplies there?

If some magmatic system is ready or nearly due to erupt, an earthquake could be an effective trigger."

In fact, that's probably what happened in 1707, when the Tokai area experienced a huge earthquake just two months before Fuji blew.

Pompokyo.Has a nice ring to it!

Thanks for the info.op and the person who posted the live link to it,will be watching.

The preacher John Paul Jackson predicted millions will perish over 20 years ago. At the time of his prediction Mount Fuji was a dormant volcanoe.

Check this out, written just last month in 'The Japan Times' just last month.
Seems scientist are expecting it to blow anytime too.
