Yellowstone quake 'swarm' raises disaster fears
'Be prepared,' pastor warns the nation
Published: 1 day ago


The “supervolcano” at Yellowstone National Park is being hit by a swarm of hundreds of earthquakes, according to researchers who have been tracking seismic activity this week.

More than 400 have been detected in the area since June 12, including a 4.5 magnitude quake within the park on June 15.

Researchers say the risk of activating the supervolcano is low and the quakes are nothing to be concerned about, as they are common in the region. However, others believe it is inevitable and only a matter of time before such a disaster takes place.

If this supervolcano goes off - it's game over. It will dump feet thick of ash over at least 1/2 of North America and pretty much end things we know it. Not something I'm going to lose sleep about.

On the plus side, it'll take a big bite out of both globull warming and over population! :whistle:

Here's hoping if she does blow, that the wind is blowing west to east.   :laugh:

It's SMOD in a different form.

Only a bit more scarey.
