Is the world's largest super-volcano set to erupt for the first time in 600,000 years

Is the world's largest super-volcano set to erupt for the first time in 600,000 years, wiping out two-thirds of the U.S.? (Full title)

The super-volcano beneath Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming has been rising at a record rate since 2004.

It would explode with a force a thousand times more powerful than the Mount St Helens eruption in 1980.

Spewing lava far into the sky, a cloud of plant-killing ash would fan out and dump a layer 10ft deep up to 1,000 miles away.

Two-thirds of the U.S. could become uninhabitable as toxic air sweeps through it, grounding thousands of flights and forcing millions to leave their homes.

Article advises to read more - so I did;)

“But due the extreme conditions it has been hard to work out what exactly is going on down below, leading researchers unable to say with certainty what will happen - or when.

Since the most recent blast 640,000 years ago there have been around 30 smaller eruptions, the most recent of which was 70,000 years ago.”

Is that for my trailer? It’ll be nice to be in before Christmas.

BTW, Geologist,

What can you share about the equatorial water bulge . . . don't recall if I've asked you or not.

John Moore, here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6Ieca5utqo

asserts that between mean average sea level at Cornwall England and high points in the bulge can be as much as 450 feet difference . . . meaning there's many CUBIC MILES of water above sea level in that bulge. Do you have any guesstimates of how much water?

And, if there were some geomagnetic anomolies of great intensity and/or pole shift dynamics of significant drama . . . how much damage how far up and inland could the bulge water result in? I'm having a hard time precisely placing the NM/UT/AZ/Colo 4 corners area on the Stan Deyo Hopi map below. Can you help at all?

[Kartographer]

Clearly its the ‘Tea Party's’ and rightwing radio's fault their rhetoric has inflamed the Yellowstone Volcano into a bitter rage!

[Noumenon]

Well, there goes my neighborhood...

The media is going to hype this stuff like crazy to whip up interest for 2012 stories.First the mass animal deaths.(Which is a non story it happens all the time.)Then the superstorms, now this.We’re going to be bombarded with stories like this all year long.Just as long as nobody forgets the real disaster is puttering around on a golf course somewhere near D.C.

[Quix]

Could you help place the SW 4 Corners area on the map in #46 above?

Would much appreciate it.

I know the Hopi elders believe that their mesas will have to be reached by boat.

I’ve got beachfront property in Central Texas!?

Are you kidding me? That’s why Obamma stopped all oil drilling. By killing oil production....woops, by ending oil production, he is leaving the oil in the ground to lubricate the movement of tektonic plates. He saved or minimized the impact of this to roughly 200,000,000 Americans.

Evidently.

Most of the future maps—most from occult sources—indicate a wide extension of the Gulf of Mexico to the Great Lakes.

The particular specific width, of course, remains to be seen.

As does how far up the Texas coastline the enlarged gulf may increase.

>>Two-thirds of the U.S. could become uninhabitable as toxic air sweeps through it<<

Seems to me that two thirds is recorded somewhere else. Coincidence? I think not.

Depending on the version of the potential ash cloud map, I live either just outside the area of ash fall, or at worst on the far southwestern edge. So I’ve got that going for me, which is nice.

>>>>And the new madrid fault is also supposedly acting up.

FEMA is soliciting bids for MREs to be used in the event of a New Madrid event.

You’ll be getting some awesome sunsets for a while.
