Scientists Closely
Monitoring Yellowstone

Recent eruptions, 200 degree ground temperatures, bulging magma and 84 degree water temperatures prompt heightened srutiny of park's geothermal activity...
 
BILLINGS, Mont. -- Yellowstone National Park happens to be on top of one of the largest "super volcanoes" in the world. Geologists claim the Yellowstone Park area has been on a regular eruption cycle of 600,000 years. The last eruption was 640,000 years ago making the next one long overdue. This next eruption could be 2,500 times the size of the 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption. Volcanologists have been tracking the movement of magma under the park and have calculated that, in parts of Yellowstone, the ground has risen over seventy centimeters this century.
 
In July, 2003, Yellowstone Park rangers closed the entire Norris Geyser Basin because of deformation of the land and excessive high ground temperatures. There is an area that is 28 miles long by 7 miles wide that has bulged upward over five inches since 1996, and this year the ground temperature on that bulge has reached over 200 degrees (measured one inch below ground level).
 
There was no choice but to close off the entire area. Everything in this area is dying: The trees, flowers, grass and shrubs. A dead zone is developing and spreading outward. The animals are literally migrating out of the park.
 
Then during the last part of July one of the Park geologists discovered a huge bulge at the bottom of Yellowstone Lake. The bulge has already risen over 100 feet from the bottom of the lake and the water temperature at the surface of the bulge has reached 88 degrees and is still rising.
 
Keep in mind that Yellowstone Lake is a high mountain lake with very cold water temperatures. The Lake is now closed to the public. It is filled with dead fish floating everywhere. The same is true of the Yellowstone river and most of the other streams in the Park. Dead and dying fish are filling the water everywhere.
 
Many of the picnic areas in the Park have been closed and people visiting the Park usually stay but a few hours before leaving since the stench of sulfur is so strong they literally can't stand the smell.
 
The irony of all this is the silence by the news media and our government. Very little information is available from Yellowstone personnel or publications. What mainstream newsstories do appear underscore the likelihood of a massive volcanic eruption. Though geologists publicly admit Yellowstone is "overdue," they have been quoted as stating another massive magma release may not occur for 100,000 or 2 million years. Others close to the story are convinced that a massive eruption is imminent. A source that has demonstrated first-hand knowledge of the park's history and recent geothermal events stated the following: "The American people are not being told that the explosion of this 'super volcano' could happen at any moment. When Yellowstone does blow, some geologists predict that every living thing within six hundred miles is likely to die. The movement of magma has been detected just three-tenths of a mile below the bulging surface of the ground in Yellowstone raising concerns that this super volcano may erupt soon."

A proclaimed Muslim Daleel from Death Squad 8 on a Yahoo website that has been shut down claimed that is God Allah was going to be responsible for this thing going off very soon.

My girlfriend's 10 yr old heard me telling her about the Volcano and he chimed in telling Mom what he was watching and following on a tv program about it.

Could this be the diaster impending in the Mid West?

Not a nuke as some are thinking.

I don't think you would need to dig down, just create a fissure line, if possible, like cracking a large stone.

That date roughly corresponds to the next crisis in the book the Fourth Turning. Assuming that 9/11 wasn't the crisis.

ASH WARNING


Came from SEATTLE area. The sunsets in 1980 were exceptional because of the Ash in the air for so long. Was like smoke from a wildfire.

IIRC, they predicted the date of their own demise, so I will probably go through the last date on their calendar wondering if something will happen. Probably nothing will and I will be fine.

Dec. 21, 2012 is the date their calendar ends for some reason. Apparently, there is some major astronomical event that will happen then that may be why they chose the date. We will see if anything happens then I guess.

I think I'll hang onto my sailboat here in San Diego. The one I've crossed a couple oceans on. Might be a good thing to have if this sucker blows.

An odd thing is that on one site....yes, a kooky site, but surprisingly open-minded saying nothing may happen of significance at all in 20012....is that apparently two guys did some calculations using fractals and found that 2012 seems to be a center for time in some fashion. And they did this before the recent Mayan hoopla about the year came about. Interesting stuff in any case.

Good Pic Link and Article. And this from our Govt. site.

Intense stuff.

Meanwhile the media continues to report on MJ, Kobe ect..

We need a tv station/news that reports more of what is really going on in the country.

MSNBC has run the Prison Documentry one time to many this week.

Thank God for FR. OP

I am not saying it would be a nice way to die.....would be pure hell, basically suffocating on ash that cuts up your lungs; that is how many of the Nebraska animals died.

Was that the Mt. that before it blew looked like a perfect Cone?

If so I flew by it as a teen ager in PI and when I returned to the states it was a poster that was on my bedroom wall.

I remember being told it was unactive if the same volcano. That was in 1976.

The Myan calander places the year of the end at 2012, the same date that the bible codes place the astroid impact.

The codes also place a massive earth quake in California in 2010.

I remember very vividly that they stated only around two meters of ash fell on the eastern side of Ohio in the last eruption of the Yellowstone Caldera.

ONLY two meters of ash? Do you have any idea how nasty that stuff IS? 2 meters is SIX FEET and it don't melt away any time soon either!

That is like six feet of fine stinky DUST we are talking about!!!

I am not a Bible code fan. It disturbs me that folks are using the Bible for NUMEROLOGY, a big Biblical no-no.

It is interesting that it also has 2012 though. That makes three things pointing to that year.
