Yellowstone Earthquake Swarm Hits Entire Park, More Than 60 On Friday Alone

YELLOWSTONE REGION (INTELLIHUB) — U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) seismology reports conclude that a massive swarm of earthquakes swept through the park triggering more than 60 separate events in which seismographs spiked to magnitudes of up to 5.0. Friday.

Experts fear that the supervolcano is long overdue for an eruption capable of wiping out a vast amount of human, animal, and plant life in the Continental United States.

Scientists currently believe that there’s a 10% chance that a “supervolcanic Category 7 eruption” could take place this century, as pointed out by theoretical physicist Michio Kaku who appeared on a segment for Fox News.

The grey haired physicist told Shepard Smith that the “danger” we are now facing with the caldera is that it’s long overdue for an eruption which Kaku said could “rip the guts out of the USA.”

Kaku said that a “pocket of lava” located under the park has turned out to be twice as big as scientists originally thought.

Scientist concur that the last eruption of the caldera took place some 640,000 years ago.

The U.S. is currently under contract with at least 4 countries all of which have agreed to house displaced U.S. citizens in the unfortunate event the Yellowstone supervolcano were to erupt. Hundreds of billions of dollars were paid to foreign governments to facilitate the agreement which spans a ten year period from its signing, ending in 2024.

An excerpt from an article I authored in April of 2014 titled: “Report: Brazil, Argentina and Australia sign contracts worth hundreds of billions of dollars to house displaced U.S. populace when Yellowstone supervolcano erupts” reads:

The U.S. plan for relocation was formulated after a recent scientific analysis of the park revealed that Yellowstone’s supervolcano has the potential to...

If the caldera blows the airports will stop working....and a tsunami will screw up the ports...

So how we are expected to get to Argentina or Brazil....?


It wouldn’t matter about getting to the ports because not that many would be able to get to the ports.

Not my fault.
I submitted the official paperwork to declare that.

Kaku is a kook and apparently a narcissist. He sensationalizes everything he talks about and is in love with himself. Saying that about Yellowstone just got him a few more TV interviews. Some things he says may be true but it’s impossible to tell.

Here is one for you. The entire area of Naples Italy is within a caldera. AND it is under the yellow watch. It will be about a 7 event.

If the Cascadia zone slips, it might set off one of the volcanoes in that area, or set of Yellowstone. Yellowstone goes off and we can all bend over and kiss our asses goodbye no mater where the hell you live on this earth. Depends on how big the event is..

I was in Yellowstone 5 years ago and asked a Ranger at Old Faithful what would happen to us, who were right there, if the caldera went off, and he said we’d be vaporized.

Nonsense as is the claim of 60 + significant earthquakes. There has been a small swarm in West Yellowstone for the last couple weeks. However nothing indicates and eruption coming soon. There is a lot of magma there and it does frequently move.

Well, before Friday's swarm, the Yellowstone super volcano. Now that geological stress has been relieved for the rest of my lifetime, I'll go with zombie apocalypse.

A zombie apocalypse is better by far, because instead of this:

It wouldnt go off all of a sudden. There would be more and more earthquakes and more severe. There would be several vents open up and those would enjoin with each other and spew ash until they all come unzipped and the thing collapses again creating another caldera. Days? Weeks? Nobody knows. But the biggest one put enough ash into the air making it the second biggest event in years and years.

There would be days of advance warning for people to get the hell outta the way. What good that would do, I dont know since it will kill in effect over one third of the earths population over the years following the event.

So much for the survivalists. They will die as well as the rest. except they will starve a little later than the rest of us.

That is exactly how it might happen. Well thought out, that one.
