The LAST thing our world needs right now is another Tambora-sized eruption. That eruption spewed 15 cubic miles of volcanic ash into the atmosphere and resulted in essentially NO summer in 1816 in much of the world, causing unprecedented crop failures in the higher latitudes.

After the 1815 eruption, it snowed on Independence Day, 1816 in NYC. At least, I think that was the year. Whatever Mt Merapi decides to do, it’s not going to be pretty.
