On Sunday, the worst earthquake in about 30 years rattled the Yellowstone supervolcano. Overall, there have been at least 25 significant earthquakes at Yellowstone National Park since Thursday, but it is the 4.8 earthquake that has many observers extremely worried. Could such a large earthquake be a sign that the Yellowstone supervolcano is starting to roar to life after all this time? And if it does erupt, what would that mean for the rest of the country? As you will see below, a full-blown eruption at Yellowstone would be absolutely catastrophic. It is estimated that such an eruption could dump a 10 foot deep layer of volcanic ash up to 1,000 miles away and render much of the nation uninhabitable for years to come. In essence, it would instantly bring the United States to its knees.
It is true that it is normal for Yellowstone to experience up to 3,000 earthquakes a year. But most of those earthquakes are extremely small and nothing to worry about.
But the 4.8 earthquake that struck on Sunday is definitely raising eyebrows – especially considering what else has been going on at Yellowstone lately.
For example, the scientists that monitor Yellowstone are telling us that the area where the earthquake was centered has been experiencing “ground uplift” in recent months…

PING!
I don’t even wat to contemplate this and will not read it. I will say that there are a lot of experets who say there is nothing to wory about. Then again they might say this if there was something to worry about. We would all be so screwed.
it would look bad.
VERY very bad.
Think Krakatoa times 1000
People who lived 20 miles away from Krakatoa went deaf from the initial blast shock wave.
There is the small problem of surviving the eruption though....

Behold the instrument of God’s judgment against America.
Global warming would look like a walk in the park next to this...
What’s the risk of continental extinction vs. better wine? Let’s get our priorities straight, folks!
The one bright spot is that it would end global warming.
I think I saw a documentary that said that the midwest (Kansas here) would be covered in 9 inches of ash.
Well, it would end global warming, global cooling, and climate change. Also, it’d help CNN immensely recover from the ratings issues....with live-updates from the Volcano.
Well, look at the bright side. It would put so much ash into the atmosphere that we wouldn’t have to worry about Global Warming for a long, long time . . . .
“Behold the instrument of God’s judgment against America.”
That’s what he is doing up there? Waiting for the “right” time to obliterate millions of people from the face of the earth? Bored much he must be...
. . . .not to mention it would trigger another Continental Glaciation period. . .
>>> Bored much he must be...
Make no mistake about the times we live in.
It’s not a matter of “waiting”, but rather a matter of completion.
Fred Phelps, is that you?

It would make ALL Nuke Blasts since 1945 look SMALL!
In other words Ya’ll had BETTER GET BACK TO CHURCH AND REPENT!!!!
It would be lights out for the US and most of western Canada. There has been a flurry of blogs & articles about the bison and antelope moving out of the park.
Ruth Graham said it actually...
