Buy property in SOUTHERN Mexico.
Hey libh8er-Your graph looks like a prostate drawing.
Oh no.
Is this still news? My daughter and SIL went to Jellystone several years ago and heard about this. I actually saw them on my TV screen. There are always TV cameras operating there, so we’ll get to see it blow. Or not blow.
“Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines in 1991, which is considered one of the most powerful volcanic eruptions in recent history,”
Novarupta was thee largest in recent history-20th century.
“could be over 100 times more powerful than the one at Mount Pinatubo!”
Could be and then it could not be.
Get your information from places like GeologyHub on youtube and quit with the GD panic punk places.
BTW..the USGS is the place to go for information on geological information. Not some GD Effing panic punk site.
Novarupta is irrelevant because the damage is trivial compared to Mt Pinatubo.
For the math challenged in Rio Linda...
Unleashing 240 cubic miles of material would be a cube 15.5 miles on each side.
While there have been measurable changes, I’m not yet buying this latest fear porn - only helping the math challenged here.
...it’s what I do sometimes.
You’re Welcome =o)
Have the Yellowstone Caldera get together with Mt. Everest. Between the two of them, they’ll both have a good time.
Apparently that the park was recently closed?
Or the author just claims it was.
Over twice as big as Pinatubo and bigger than Krakatoa.
Effected climate over the northern hemisphere.
Volcanic winter, not nuclear.

Dammit!
I laughed a snot bubble in my beer!
You’re a horrible person...but hilarious
They keep dumping this stuff in my alerts. It’s amusing fear porn in an age of fear porn.
Don’t hold back. Tell us how you really feel about that site.
“The thing is….if the caldera blows, pretty much everything West of the Mississippi is gone”
Likely the west coast coastal areas and up to the summit of the Cascades would be spared the worst of it (I know some people would like it to be the reverse). And most of CA would be spared (in the same category).
I live about 100 miles east of the Cascades and am probably just at the edge of the expected worst impact zone. Distance from Yellowstone about 600 miles. So much depends on the winds aloft at the time of an eruption. This whole area typically experiences westerly and southwesterly winds most of the year and sometimes northerly in winter. Easterly winds basically don’t happen except for small areas. If winds are strong and westerly at the time of the eruption heavy ash flow could occur as far east as Vermont. However, many volcanologists believe the Yellowstone formation is too old geologically to sustain another major eruption, at least another near million megaton one.
“Yellowstone Park Ranger Just Revealed That Something Big Happened Inside Yellowstone”
On the bright side an eruption would end the lunatic Left’s constant b-tching about global warming.
You say that like that is a bad thing.
Yellowstone closes various roads and entrances every March for grading and upkeep. Everything opens back up the first week of April. I think the main paved highway stays open year round but most of the visitor buildings will be locked so don’t count on any bathrooms being open.
I kinda, sorta thought the second post mighta, kinda contributed to what mighta been the new evidence from the Lone Ranger, but ...
Have they blamed global warming yet?
