In the early hours of Wednesday morning (GMT), Alaska’s Great Sitkin volcano erupted, prompting the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) to set the volcano alert level to a warning.
The authority has also raised the aviation color code to red. An AVO and US Geological Survey (USGS) volcanic activity notice read: “A short-duration (1-2 minutes) explosive eruption began at 21:04 AKDT (5:04 UTC 26 May), resulting in an ash cloud up to 15,000 ft asl.
“Since that explosion, seismicity has decreased and satellite images show that the ash cloud has detached from the vent and is moving towards the east. “Additional explosions are possible and the Aviation Color Code remains at RED and the Volcano Alert Level at WARNING.”
In the hours prior to the alert level being raised to red/warning, the AVO had upgraded the volcano to orange/watch level. The AVO said the alert level change was due to an “increase in unrest” at the site. According to the AVO, Great Sitkin erupted at least three times in the 20th century, with the most recent eruption taking place in 1974.

Volcanic ash feeds plankton at the botton of the food chain.
This is great news for fishing.

The Greatest April Fool’s Day Prank Of All Time Took Four Years To Plan, And Involved A Volcano
Seems like a lot of volcanoes are erupting...perhaps more than “normal”, maybe not, maybe it’s just the press and the fact that everyone has a phone/camera and rush to post every little thing.
That’s a future pic of Murkowski’s head when our PDJT wins again again in 2024.
I am reminded that in the early 2000’s when yet another Icelandic volcano erupted, it erased in four days all the “savings” in carbon dioxide for the previous 30 years of emission controls on cars.
It has occurred to me that Mother Nature likes carbon dioxide. It feeds her green plants and as pointed out earlier, the nitrogen-rich ash of her volcanos feeds the plankton in the seas. That being said, expect more of the same from Gaia, the Earth-force in the future as she warms up to the idea of another 100,000 years of glaciation.
Stay frosty, my fRiends
