Earthquakes: Is Yellowstone about to blow?

OH dear Jesus .....not this again.

God we are all fed up of this story, move long nothing to see here muppetts. god you GLP's love doom and gloom don't you go help us you morons

Yellowstone is too leaky of a system to blow. It can only ooze.

It's overdue a big blow-off

No it isnt. Volcanic systems erupt when the circumstances are right for them to erupt, they dont erupt to cycles or averages.

no-one has EVER seen one of these blow, and we may well be in the final stages of the pre eruption phase, FOR ALL WE KNOW!

granted, this 'final phase' might last hundreds, or even thousands of years in a system as large as this, or it might be days or weeks

NO-ONE KNOWS!

It's overdue a big blow-off - the last one threw millions of cubic tonnes across the globe. Having said that we are 30M years overdue an ELE from an asteroid but I'm not holding my breath.

Curious. How big is a cubic tonne?

Big??

Lava Creek Eruption around 640,000 years ago was VEI 8 Erupting 1000Km3 of material.

Mesa Falls Eruption around 1.3 Million Years ago was VEI 7 Erupting 240Km3 of material.

Huckleberry Ridge Eruption around 2.2 Million Years ago was VEI 8 Erupting 2500Km3 of material.

Overdue? My bad poetic exaggeration - I just meant that it could go soon if its history is anything to go by (seems to pop every 0.7M years/ish - so we do have a little wait if it's going to precise).
That is of course unless the EQ swarm that is happening at present continues or worsens enough for Geoelectromagnetic energy or geothermalfrictional dooberies (I am joking)'warms' things up - or HAARP gets a bad blow-back?

I'm just wondering what people think of the current situation really - not suggesting immanency.

1000 Litre3 = 1 cubic tonne
1 cubic tonne = 1 000 000 000 kg3

Is this correct?

Oh! Thanks for the correction and sharing of insight then. I'll leave you to dwell in your lonely 'correctnessphere'. It's your ball and your going home!
Your question was what how much is a cubic tonne - Can you illuminate us? Or is your problem the tonne/ton divide (We don't all speak American if that is the case).

Tremors getting stronger? Yes but not over 3.9 as yet (as far as I've seen)...

Wtf is up with you americans and the simple and coherent metric system? It is based on the meter for measuring distances, which is about 3ft 4" long. And volumes and weights are based on derivates of the meter according to the following logic: 1 meter cubed is 1000 liters in volume, and if that volume of one cubic meter is filled up with water, it weighs 1000 kilograms, or 1 metric ton. Around 2200 US pounds.

Nothing is called a "cubic tonne", that makes just about as much sense as a cubic pound...

A cubic kilometer is 1000*1000*1000 meters of volume, wich eguates to a billion cubic meters, or if filled with water a billion tons. Or 1000 billion kg's.

Get it straight, it's the only system worth using.

Nothing is called a "metric tonne"?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the metric unit of mass. For other tons, see Ton. For the World War II fighter pilot, see Wolfgang Tonne.
A tonne (unit symbol t) or metric ton (U.S.),[1] also referred to as a metric tonne, is a measurement of mass equal to 1,000 kg or 2,204.62262 lb, or approximately the mass of one cubic metre of water at four degrees Celsius. It is not a unit in the International System of Units (SI), but is accepted for use with the SI.[2] In SI units and prefixes, the tonne is a megagram (Mg). The spelling tonne pre-dates the introduction of the SI system in 1960; it has been used with this meaning in France since 1842,[3] and is now used as the standard spelling for the metric mass measurement in most English-speaking countries[citation needed]. In the U.S., the units were originally referred to using the French words millier or tonneau,[4] but these terms are now obsolete.[1] The Imperial and US customary units comparable to the tonne are both spelled ton in English, though they differ in mass.

Yellowstone is too leaky of a system to blow. It can only ooze.
