Yes, a linear vent eruption.

I referred to it as a tablet eruption but then my geologic nomenclature is rather old fashioned and not as up to date as cripplecreek’s.

Its called a linear vent eruption and they aren’t even remotely uncommon.

Now you tell us. I’ve already sold all my possessions and left my wife and children for a cave in the Yukon Mountains. This stinks.

They appear to be very common in Iceland. It looks like they happen in Hawaii as well but under a different set of conditions.

This could be easily explained by movement of magma within the magma chamber beneath the volcano. They can be very strangely shaped.

Here is the magma chamber under Yellowstone.

Here they’re called fissure eruptions.

>>>I think it is interesting that dormant volcano after dormant volcano keeps waking up. What’s up with that?<<<

The Internet. Not so many years ago you’d have never known about this eruption because the MSM would’ve ignored it like they did most world news. Thanks to the net we are now able to be aware of things that the MSM still ignore. This does not mean we’re having any more natural events than we used to, it just means we know about more of them these days.

I’m suggesting that this eruption may be associated with last year’s megaquake which was only about 100 miles away.

So is the pointy end of South America still in the same place?

And the number of 9.0 earthquakes that are happening? We’ve had two within a year (Japan and Chile).

On a lighter note, and to the repudiation of the left, it also helps to debunk climate change caused by Homo Sapiens.

Oh didn't you get the memo mankind is the cause of these volcanoes. J/K but you can bet that at least one on the loony left will say it.

Yeah, if we had summers like the rest of the pansies in the country, we would be overrun with people.
