Nonsense. I remember in the last 20+ years, when Art Bell was on the radio, and there were thousands of earthquakes less than 2.5 in about a 30 day period and It was great radio. It’s NOT going off in our short 80+ year lifetimes, I totally believe that.
I don’t think it is. I think the Great Salt Lake is the remnant of an earlier sea. You can see the former water level on the mountains surrounding the Salt Lake valley.
We went there last August and were thinking about going again this August. This sure puts a damper on the enthusiasm I had about returning, lol. It probably won’t erupt during our lifetimes, but you never know.
Both are a risk to life and limb on the roads. Be careful out there...
If there's a rock and roll heaven, you know that freepers be there.
Catch you on the flip side, y'all.
“It would make two thirds of the United States uninhabitable.”
Just curious, is that considered an increase from current levels? :)

“Since 1973, there have been over 48,000 earthquakes located in the Yellowstone region. Over 99% of those earthquakes are magnitude 2 or below and are not felt by anyone. Earthquake swarms (earthquakes that cluster in time and space) account for about 50% of the total seismicity in Yellowstone and can occur anywhere in the Yellowstone region, but they are most common in the east-west band of seismicity between Hebgen Lake and the Norris Geyser Basin. Most swarms are small, containing 10-20 earthquakes, and short, lasting for 1–2 days. However, large swarms that can contain 1,000’s of earthquakes and last for months do occur on occasion.”+
Dog years yo. Don’t tell me nobody told you that.
Vomitorium?
Its had three huge blows over the past couple million years, but numerous smaller ones. Lots of talk about what another huge one could do. But I’ve never seen a description of what the far more likely little one would do. That we should know and probably can plan for.
The elk stayed a good distance from the road. On the other hand, we had to stop more than once for buffalo on the road. They look at you when you drive slowly by, as if daring you to do anything to get them off the road. You do have to be careful when driving in Yellowstone, as the animals do go onto the road fairly often.
Just Mama Nature adjusting her girdle.
No cause for alarm unless she gets constipated.
Especially after dark and in the fog.
My personal experiences....
Mathew 24.
I thought they were for pots of fondue with small fires underneath to keep them hot. What's a bar without free snacks? :)
Some people are so bored with their lives that they seem to want something like this to happen.
Either that or they have a mountain of MRE’s slowly rotting in the garage and they are concerned that they may have wasted their money!
Personally I enjoy civilization.
You’d think an activist judge would have issued an injunction by now.
“If the volcano were to erupt it would kill an estimated 87,000 people immediately and make two-thirds of the USA immediately uninhabitable.”
Socialists within our own borders do this every day of the week in all Democrat-Run Major Metro Areas!
We should WELCOME our new Volcano Overlords! One, and DONE! :)
Maybe this is why Beto movedthe earths “sell by” date from 12 years to 10.
