Yellowstone Supervolcano Takes a Deep Breath
Better ride it while you can, and start loading up on food and ammo in case it explodes. "When it blows, it could destroy the United States as we know it":

Re: Yellowstone Supervolcano Takes a Deep Breath
i didnt even click on your link, but i know alot about this. This super volcano pops ever 350-500k years and where over due now.
As a age old geology quote guys "Its not a matter of if but a matter of when". Last time it poped it rained ash 1,000 miles.

Re: Yellowstone Supervolcano Takes a Deep Breath
Yeah, it's definitely not "if" but "when". The second largest supervolcano in North America is just down the road a bit by Mono Lake:

At least that one hasn't take any deep breaths recently, but it has been acting up "recently" in geologic time:

At least that one hasn't take any deep breaths recently, but it has been acting up "recently" in geologic time:
More worrisome is a swarm of strong earthquakes in 1980 and the 10-inch rise of about 100 square miles of caldera floor. Those developments have geologists concerned that Long Valley is gearing up for another eruption of some sort.
In the early 1990s yet another subtle sign of trouble became evident: Large amounts of carbon dioxide gas from magma below had begun seeping up through the ground and killing trees in the Mammoth Mountain part of the caldera. When these sorts of signs are present at a "central vent" volcano like Mount St. Helens, trouble is on the way soon. At a caldera, which has many outlets, it could mean trouble is years, decades or even centuries away, say volcanologists.

Maybe it will shake off the left coast and there will then be hope and change. Ahem.GrizzlyGuy wrote:"When it blows, it could destroy the United States as we know it":
Re: Yellowstone Supervolcano Takes a Deep Breath
Can we have the left coast end...around Sac? Nevada cut off....would be bad..personally.
The thing is, when you're dealing with the time scale of Yellowstone's volcano.....So it blows every 640,000 years...and it's been 600,000 years or whatever. This "Deep breath" could be the precursor to an eruption.......in 10,000 years. Just no way to know.

Re: Yellowstone Supervolcano Takes a Deep Breath
Yeah, if you go far enough east. Ken wants to cut it off at Sac, and I'm thinking just east of Applegate.hemingray wrote:The old desire to separate Northern California from So Cal is less attractive than East and West California!Ken wrote:Can we have the left coast end...around Sac?

Wouldn't that include the greenie goofballs in Placerville who run Eldorado NF and want to kick out all things motorized?hemingray wrote:You want to keep ALL of Placer County in East Calif.!
If we can somehow exclude all federal employees, then I'm OK with it. We don't even need the mailmen: they all eventually go postal, and we can get our mail via non-federal Federal Express.

And for that remark... we're moving the western border for the great state of Eastern California to just east of your house.Ken wrote:No wonder he owns 22 GPS devices...hemingray wrote:Well, no, that's El Dorado County over there.GrizzlyGuy wrote:Wouldn't that include the greenie goofballs in Placerville who run Eldorado NF and want to kick out all things motorized?
