But we'll see... after that failed Iran doom. :huffy: [/quote] DOST-PHILVOC lists Mt. Taal as a super volcano. If you live in Philippines, then you should know that Lake Taal is a huge caldera. Link for your education: https://www.phivolcs.dost.gov.ph/index.php/2-uncategorised/177-taal-volcano [/quote] I looked at the link but can you please point where is it listed as a "super volcano"? It is labelled as a "complex" volcano, is complex = super? [/quote] The largest lake is inside a large volcanic caldera that was produced hundreds of thousands of years ago by a catastrophic eruption by a supervolcano that was thousands of times larger than Krakatua. Inside the lake is a smaller volcano and lake with a small island topped by a relatively new volcanic crater. Taal is only 1,000 feet tall but don't let its small size deceive you. It has a deadly history. The worst of its numerous eruptions killed thousands of people in 1754 http://factsanddetails.com/southeast-asia/Philippines/sub5_6h/entry-3923.html [/quote] It was a supervolcano long ago of course that I knew, I said it's not a supervolcano on the current context of Taal and wiki doesn't list it as a current supervolcano. Mayon is much more memorable to me, as it was hyped more at school back then. But we'll see, a VEI6 is within DOOM levels. [/quote] Setting aside the "supervolcano" argument, Taal IS listed as one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world. It is definitely not "a shit volcano" as per your original post. https://www.bbvaopenmind.com/en/science/environment/the-most-dangerous-volcanoes-in-the-world/ [/quote] A shit volcano if it is not global doom (global cooling effects) like Pinatubo's VEI6 at minimum. MAYBE for us it's DOOM, but on a global scale not really unless Pinatubo level. Can you imagine if Pinatubo erupted today in combination with a 'bagyo'? Now that would be really DOOOOOM. [/quote] Anymore news at all? [/quote] Aside from level 4 alert, reports of passengers, motorists stuck in Tagaytay, and ashfall falling north of it in the capital region because of southerly winds. Still have to wait 8 hours for daylight. [/quote]
