Interesting cluster pattern at Yellowstone. Portentous activity, folks.

New studies and data say Yellowstone is dieing.. wouldn't that just be a sad day for the fearmongers of GLP....

I will take this opportunity to bump my post with a correction to the first sentence:

It's "its" not "it's"

Ahhh, a useful bump!

Link?

And what evidence or historical documents that show that Yellowstone has ever erupted before or are they just making it up?

What if this was the first time it ever exploded?

Ash samples thousands of miles away and the data by scientists average out the eruptions to 700k year cycles.

I guess reading something other than FB, twitter, or PlayBoy is not an option for you there Einstein. FFS!

:fullretard1:

Was reading up on her cycles just a couple months ago from a wiki page...says last ones were around 6k years apart.

One dude at a university in Wyoming says it's dead from acid samples? Dude, my money is on earth doing what she wants to do. He just gets more research grants to be sure he has arrived at a correct analysis. Usual ploy.

Of course its a ploy... why would anyone at GLP believe anything that could be true.. but as always its just a guy looking for money and has to be wrong because GLP wants doom so will believe anything as long as it fits the doom agenda

Seriously.

"This sin't the massive caldera we're looking for. Move along. Nothing to see here."

So they recently discovered that it's a lot bigger than they thought; but hey, not to worry - we'll just decide that it's actually extinct instead of dormant! Problem solved.

Just because researchers believe it may soon be extinct, doesn't make it true. I'm not saying this thing is going to go but I wouldn't just take their word for it, nobody truly knows what is going on down there right now.

Go to Wyoming. Look at the hills that have been cut by rivers over the millennia. You will see very thick layers of ash, one after another. Ash layers 30-50' thick.

Odd factoid: Wyoming used to be a rainforest. Quite a departure from the current cold, windy environment. A good consequence: the harsh weather keeps Californians out of the state except for Jackson.

My initial thought when I read this article was "Famous last words."

Don't worry about this guy. Science obviously isn't his thing.

In addition to ash traced to Yellowstone they also have entire mountains that have been thrown 100 miles East of the caldera.

An explosion of that magnitude is terrifying to consider.

Whoa....

Oh my.

That cluster is definitely something to watch.

The eruption threw a mountain 100 miles? !?!?

So we might actually hear or see something of the explosion here in South Texas? We're 1400 miles away. I've heard that previous Yellowstone eruptions left a few inches of ash in the Gulf of Mexico.

if you thing this thing is dying please take a look at yellowstones historical record. yes this current volcano maybe dying but as the continental plate keeps drifting you can rest assured that a new one will develope farther west.

There are currently some previously long dormant normal non-super-volcano volcanoes that have suddenly become active.

Yeah you always have one idiot in the bunch who wants to try to rattle someones nerves..The proof is what it is and I for one believe something big is about to happen.. I have done allot of research myself from the animals moving out to all the earthquakes thats been happening over the last couple weeks. Its best to be watchful and prepared than to be ignorant and blind..

Living 500 miles away in Nebraska, I estimate the blast wave will arrive 40 minutes after an event... and the ash cloud 9-10 hours later. Plenty of time to bug out first to the North, then go West to escape the cloud.

That being said, there should be plenty of warnings as the magma pushes up - perhaps helium emissions, earthquakes, displacement... oops, that's already happening.

Some of you people need to really quite watching movies. Blast wave. OK

Lets look at the lava. Do a little research. This hotspot has the same lava as your tropical island that erupts all the time. It could have absorbed some granite, but probably not enough to make it explosive to that extent.

All Wyoming has mountains and has undergone mountain building. This means there are tons of old volcanos and vents everywhere that have nothing to due with Yellowstone. Think about that and all the ash.

If it erupts, it will move some ground to create an opening, then erupt lava, not explode. Anyone telling you different is full of shit.

But all the ash everywhere? Rocky mountains, tons of volcanos, that might explain it.

Threw a mountain. 100 miles. 'Nuff said.

Damn link to the Yellowstone watch shows a 6 day span and in those six days (including today) 138 earthquakes occurred with a mag. 4.8 as the highest recorded.

TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING GOING ON...

THERE IS NOTHING GOING ON... there, I said it.

Trust the Government. Trust the PhD types who brought you Global Warming, oops, Cooling, eggs are bad for you, no they are not, etc...

Thank God for the Internet. Instead of getting our news from one or two networks and Mr. "That's the way it is" Cronkite, we now get information from numerous sources.

We've begun to grow up and be real adults. We use discernment about lots of data coming our way and make decisions based on FACTS.

No more being spoon-fed propaganda from the usual suspects and news outlets.

Yellowstone is not dead by any means, its actively getting bigger, quakes are intensifying, but typical USGS fashion you won't get a warning from them until about 10 minutes before it happens.


The USGS is the federal government, in 1980 they were more than willing to help people, i would not count on that now.


The signs you'll see that an eruption is immenent would be constant 3.5+ earthquake 'tremors', harmonics constantly, very strange behavior from animals (bison video doesn't count....), animals will act completely batty.

Other signs will be highly increased gas emissions, sulfur dioxide emissions, etc.


If all else fails, watch the USGS, because they are certainly watching yellowstone, why else would they wire up the entire place if it were dead? If it were dead there would not be any geothermal activity, what do you think is heating all that water so that old faithful can go off?


Use your brains people, it could off next year, next week, 100 years for now, who knows, all you can do is keep an eye on it, as for my opinion 2014 is as good a year as any for it to go kablooey so who knows.
