Yellowstone to erupt anytime now

http://www.newsmax.com/TheWire/supervolcano-yellowstone-national-park/2014/01/06/id/545385/

Long overdue, technically. There's a whole ocean of pressure under that lake floor.

Looked at a map of the "kill-zone", the spots of the US where there's basically no hope for survival- and I realized that nothing of value would be lost.

San Francisco's a few hundred miles beyond the initial rape-zone, and hell, so's Las Vegas; almost all of Nevada would be ****ed except Las Vegas- proof there's a God.

The total destruction of the US north-west and half of Canada is something I can live with.

Jackwad.

There goes the farm belt.

Yeah, but who gives a ****.

Global warming, ash cloud- we're screwed either way.

Point is I'll at least have enough time to head down to Mexico and party for awhile, compared to the sorry ****s up north who get instant-immolation, Pompeii style.

Better article, and there's basically no chance it could erupt without warning.

y ruin the fun

I take back my original post. You arent a jackwad.
You're a child.

Why so blue, panda bear?

Ha! F*ck you, Wyoming.

Also, old news.

I will admit to initial anger at the flippant banality of your posts.

Then i realized, its not like you're an adult, posting from an adult perspectiv, which would make you a tool.
You're a kid posting from mom and dad's house, who's never suffered a personal loss outside a video game.
The cut off to register here is what, 13? You must come in at just past that.

So, like i posted, i take back the jackwad. My mistake.

I'm not a big fan of ageism.

We shouldn't make fun of Blax cause he's (allegedly) a child, we should make fun of him because he's a fool!

Oh i'm not blue, Scooby Doo. Its not like i'm your HS guidance counselor 5 years from now.

But it can erupt at ANY moment.

Uh-oh, looks like you caused some butthurt. Kiss him on the cheek and apologize this instant, mister!

Oh, we'll know right before it erupts.

Do you have a single fact to back that up?

Ask the scientific community.

Scientist have discovered that the ground in Yellowstone if 74cm higher than in was in 1923 - indicating a massive swelling underneath the park. The reservoir is filling with magma at an alarming rate. The volcano erupts with a near-clockwork cycle of every 600,000 years. The last eruption was more than 640,000 years ago - we are overdue for annihilation.

What would be the effect of an eruption?

Immediately before the eruption, there would be large earthquakes in the Yellowstone region. The ground would swell further with most of Yellowstone being uplifted. One earthquake would finally break the layer of rock that holds the magma in - and all the pressure the Earth can build up in 640,000 years would be unleashed in a cataclysmic event.

Magma would be flung 50 kilometres into the atmosphere. Within a thousand kilometres virtually all life would be killed by falling ash, lava flows and the sheer explosive force of the eruption. Volcanic ash would coat places as far away as Iowa and the Gulf of Mexico. One thousand cubic kilometres of lava would pour out of the volcano, enough to coat the whole of the USA with a layer 5 inches thick. The explosion would have a force 2,500 times that of Mount St. Helens. It would be the loudest noise heard by man for 75,000 years, the time of the last super volcano eruption. Within minutes of the eruption tens of thousands would be dead.

The long-term effects would be even more devastating. The thousands of cubic kilometres of ash that would shoot into the atmosphere could block out light from the sun, making global temperatures plummet. This is called a nuclear winter. As during the Sumatra eruption a large percentage of the world's plant life would be killed by the ash and drop in temperature. Also, virtually the entire of the grain harvest of the Great Plains would disappear in hours, as it would be coated in ash. Similar effects around the world would cause massive food shortages.

It could happen, but we actively monitor it. And the chances of it happening soon over in the more distant future is low, though still possible.

Since it's eruption time range is actually really large

It's overdue for an eruption as of now.
