Dust mask? LOL. If you are in the US, Canada, or Mexico you will die under a blazing wave of hot ash. The rest of the world will die of starvation from a nuclear type winter.
I dont think it would cover the whole US with hot ash.Yes it would get very bad but some places would be much worse than others.
1 foot across the whole US. 4-20 feet in the surrounding states. We are talking an extinction level event.
Extinction of America.
America will be lucky, we'll die fairly quick. The rest of the world will have to deal with a volcanic winter, crop failures, polluted waters, ice age, and slow painful death.

Ah, I was off on how far the ash would go. The rest still holds true. I did watch the actual discovery show and they said it would more than likely cause extinction. |

Now my attention has been grabbed for this one. Now the MSM is even talking about the swarm:
Scientists eye swarm of Yellowstone quakes
Were the more than 250 tremors a sign of something bigger to come?
By Mead Gruver
The Associated Press
updated 9:25 p.m. ET, Mon., Dec. 29, 2008
CHEYENNE, Wyo. - Yellowstone National Park was jostled by a host of small earthquakes for a third straight day Monday, and scientists watched closely to see whether the more than 250 tremors were a sign of something bigger to come.
Swarms of small earthquakes happen frequently in Yellowstone, but it's very unusual for so many earthquakes to happen over several days, said Robert Smith, a professor of geophysics at the University of Utah.
"They're certainly not normal," Smith said. "We haven't had earthquakes in this energy or extent in many years."
Smith directs the Yellowstone Seismic Network, which operates seismic stations around the park. He said the quakes have ranged in strength from barely detectable to one of magnitude 3.8 that happened Saturday. A magnitude 4 quake is capable of producing moderate damage.
"This is an active volcanic and tectonic area, and these are the kinds of things we have to pay attention to," Smith said. "We might be seeing something precursory.
"Could it develop into a bigger fault or something related to hydrothermal activity? We don't know. That's what we're there to do, to monitor it for public safety."
The strongest of dozens of tremors Monday was a magnitude 3.3 quake shortly after noon. All the quakes were centered beneath the northwest end of Yellowstone Lake.
A park ranger based at the north end of the lake reported feeling nine quakes over a 24-hour period over the weekend, according to park spokeswoman Stacy Vallie. No damage was reported.
"There doesn't seem to be anything to be alarmed about," Vallie said.
Smith said it's difficult to say what might be causing the tremors. He pointed out that Yellowstone is the caldera of a volcano that last erupted 70,000 years ago.
He said Yellowstone remains very geologically active — and its famous geysers and hot springs are a reminder that a pool of magma still exists five to 10 miles underground.
"That's just the surface manifestation of the enormous amount of heat that's being released through the system," he said.
Yellowstone has had significant earthquakes as well as minor ones in recent decades. In 1959, a magnitude 7.5 quake near Hebgen Lake just west of the park triggered a landslide that killed 28 people.
Fair use applies:

just remember, scientists didnt think st helens was going to erupt the morning it did. shit can take you unawares.
as far as this is concerned, its probably just a small influx of magma from the mantle up into the chamber.
but still always good to be on guard. |

When I lived in Portland, Ore in 1980, we were timing the eruptions of Mt. St. Helens with conjunctions of the moon and the larger planets. Something always happened within a few hours of the predicted conjunctions as listed in the Llewellyn's calendar for that year. My friends and I theorized and joked that someone was focussing energy on the volcano with the intent of popping a zit, as the pictures posted to the Oregonian looked very much like acne. Yellowstone looks more like, a scab over a wound, to me than anything else. Is someone or some group picking at the "scab" with scalar or some other similar technology?
