Alert Level: Normal Volcano Notification Service
YELLOWSTONE VOLCANO OBSERVATORY INFORMATION STATEMENT U.S. Geological Survey Thursday, June 15, 2017, 9:03 PM MDT (Friday, June 16, 2017, 03:03 UTC)
YELLOWSTONE VOLCANO (VNUM #325010) 44°25'48" N 110°40'12" W, Summit Elevation 9203 ft (2805 m) Current Volcano Alert Level: NORMAL Current Aviation Color Code: GREEN
The University of Utah, a YVO member agency, sent out the following press release about a magnitude 4.5 earthquake near West Yellowstone, MT that occurred at 6:48 PM MDT.
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.

Somehow I think when a million people descend on southern Florida you'll see a different kind of carnage.

You need to keep scripture quotes in context. That's why so many of you become confused.
Go on to vv. 53 and 54: For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
Obviously, what we're discussing is the death of this physical form. Unless you're here when Christ returns, your physical form must pass off this mortal coil. Nobody gets off earth alive. (Unless, of course, they're here when Christ returns. )
So, Florida would get a tenth of an inch? Or less?
[Nobody gets off earth alive. (Unless, of course, they’re here when Christ returns.)]
I was referring to the rapture, which those of us who are believers could very well experience.
You look like a fool now, don't you Tilford?
[So, Florida would get a tenth of an inch? Or less?]
FLORIDA will get the TIDAL WAVES.
7+ would definitely do some damage. Especially if construction codes don’t take earthquakes into account.
SoCal’s Northridge and Sylmar were around 6.9
Those two gave me a whole new respect for quakes, even being 50 miles away
Little ash fall couldn't hurt.
Makes sense to me. :)
Except Elvis.
The chart is in mm. Big difference between inches and mm.
10mm is .39 inches.
(yawn)
SoCal is not impressed.
It takes California's plate a much larger "thump" for you all to get excited. But don't yawn over a 4.5 in Yellowstone. Nor on the East coast. Their plate is similar. That's why the 2011 5.8 in Virginia was such a big deal. And why the 5.0 in Ontario was felt all the way down in Baltimore MD.
Hmmm... my thoughts too...

Us periferal freepers could probably be on as long as the nets up, the interior ones better have mad freeping and driving skilz though :-)
You’re probably going to be fine up to an ash fallout level that starts to produce weight issues with your roof. Of course you’ll want to wear a particulate filter, if close enough probably have combination filter for acid gases.
This would seriously screw up the economy, a couple of growing seasons and surface water treatment and quality but most of the people who don’t make it through something like this are going to because they are government dependent.
It would behoove us to keep some decent seed populations of the wildlife currently exclusive to the area in the minimal fallout areas, the bison and elk there to mention a couple will probably be wiped out.
That will not help our landscaping here in SW Idaho.
Yellowstone Eruption: The Zones
The biggest concern with an eruption the size of Yellowstone is ashfall. The force would shoot ash into the atmosphere up to 30 kilometres high where the easterly jetstream would carry it as far away as Europe within three days.
The volcano would also eject sulphuric acid into the air forming an aerosol that remains in the atmosphere for years, screening out sunlight, causing global temperatures to drop and killing crops for years afterward.
Even 1 millimetre of ash will close airports, cause damage to vehicles and houses, and contaminate water supplies.
To get a more specific idea of how an eruption would affect us in North America, experts looked back to the amount of ash that fell during a similar super eruption 2 million years ago. From geological evidence, they are able to create a map which breaks North America into six zones. Taking population and infrastructure into account, planners are able to estimated possible fatalities and economic losses. The overall loss is staggering. According to Doug Bausch, a Senior Scientist at FEMA: “In terms of direct economic damages, a three trillion dollar number is reasonable for this event. It’s about 20 percent of our U.S. Gross Domestic Product.”

Nice map.. I dint think it would be so symmetrical though.
Like that teen age girl who died in that church bus wreck. Sarah was a great role model.
It’s better on the other side, no point in trying to live in the egg forever, gotta chip out one day..
