PRESS RELEASE University of Utah Seismograph Stations
Released: June 15, 2017 07:55 PM MDT
The University of Utah Seismograph Stations reports that a light earthquake of magnitude 4.5 occurred at 06:48 PM on June 15, 2017 (MDT). The epicenter of the shock was located in Yellowstone National Park, eight miles north-northeast of the town of West Yellowstone, Montana. The earthquake was reported felt in the towns of West Yellowstone and Gardiner, Montana, in Yellowstone National Park, and elsewhere in the surrounding region. Today's earthquake is part of an energetic sequence of earthquakes in the same area that began on June 12. This sequence has included approximately thirty earthquakes of magnitude 2 and larger and four earthquakes of magnitude 3 and larger, including today's magnitude 4.5 event. Today's earthquake is the largest earthquake to occur in Yellowstone National Park since March 30, 2014, when a magnitude 4.8 event occurred 18 miles to the east, near Norris Geyser Basin.
Anyone who felt the earthquake is encouraged to fill out a survey form either on the Seismograph Stations website: www.quake.utah.edu or the US Geological Survey website: earthquake.usgs.gov.
The Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (YVO) provides long-term monitoring of volcanic and earthquake activity in the Yellowstone National Park region. Yellowstone is the site of the largest and most diverse collection of natural thermal features in the world.

Is that enough to light off that Super Volcano?
Could you imagine the live thread of that thing going off I wonder how long we could keep posting
have
Or you could die of a heart attack cutting your grass.
Nobody gets off earth alive.
Lot of percolating in the meantime.

[Nobody gets off earth alive.]
1 Corinthians 15:51-52
51 But let me reveal to you a wonderful secret. We will not all die, but we will all be transformed! 52 It will happen in a moment, in the blink of an eye, when the last trumpet is blown. For when the trumpet sounds, those who have died will be raised to live forever. And we who are living will also be transformed.
I think I’ll hold off on buying green bananas.
Yahtzee !!!
A couple of inches of ash would till nicely into the garden.
Wouldn't want any hoosiers to be making ashes of themselves. OTOH, from central FL I only have to drive a couple hundred miles south to avoid the carnage...
“If the world ends while Trump is in office we win!”.....
If the world survives, Trump will damn sure be blamed for it.
And apparently revised down a little from 4.5 magnitude.
There was a 4.8 in Yellowstone a few years ago. Yellowstone had a 7+ in 1959. Development since might make one that big now much worse.
Hold the tip of your tongue and say, “My father works in a ship yard and picks up ashes.”
Hope they can wait until after elk season, I have another tag for this year. (Filled my tags four years in a row, so far so good!)
There is something you can do about it. You can accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and never worry again
Hmmm can you seismograph that?
Grammar Nazis.
