Something Strange With Volcano Eruption in Chile
Modern Survival Blog ^ | June 4, 2011 at 11:50 pm (PT) | Modern Survival Blog

What appears to be an enormous ash cloud rising from the eruption of a long dormant volcano named Puyehuein southern Chile on June 4, 2011, isn’t quite matching up with the location of the recorded earthquakes today in the immediate area.

“The Cordon Caulle (volcanic range) has entered an eruptive process, with an explosion resulting in a 10-kilometer-high gas column,” Chilean state emergency office said.

The thing is, for some unknown reason, as of this writing, eight earthquakes near magnitude 5 have shook the earth near the Puyehue volcano. The problem is, the earthquakes are located 20 to 40 miles away from the eruption! Very Strange Indeed. (Strange because one would think that the earthquakes associated with a given erupting volcano would be very close to the volcano itself. Instead, these strong quakes are apparently tectonic.)

There’s something brewing or interacting quite a distance from the eruption, but is quite obviously directly related. We’re talking about enormous energies here.

In addition, apparently the volcano itself has not erupted from it’s old caldera. Instead, it has ripped a huge gash into the surface of the earth 6 miles long by 3 miles wide, 2.5 miles away! Amazing.

Thousands of people are being evacuated from the area, which is located about 60 miles northwest of San Carlos. The region was deeply shaken by a pair of very strong earthquakes during 2010, a magnitude 7.1 and a very large magnitude 8.8 quake, all located along the Pacific Ring of Fire.

Chile’s chain of about 2,000 volcanoes is the world’s second largest after Indonesia. Some 50 to 60 are on record as having erupted, and 500 are potentially active.

The ash plume has now reached Argentina.
The eruption apparently extends to the Caulle Mountain Range, an adjacent volcanic fissure.

Currently, Puyehue has an eruption rating of VEI-3 (Volcanic Explosivity Index). The last time that this volcano blew it’s top with a VEI-3 was during 1929, when it erupted for 3 months between December and February. How coincidental is it that it occurred during the ‘Great Depression’. Did you know that home values now during 2011 have dropped lower than during the Great Depression (about 31%), but we’re supposedly not in a depression? But I digress…

Why post about volcanic eruptions like this one on a ‘survival’ site?
Answer: To illustrate how we become complacent. This volcano has been inactive for decades, and then suddenly, ka-boom. We must realize that we are just tiny specs of life living on top of a thin crust of shifting solid earth, and at the mercy of mother nature. It’s always stunning to observe the power that lies beneath our feet.

I agree.

Particularly given prophecies like the one I posted above.

Interesting.

I knew about the PNW ones.

Much appreciate your elaboration.

I don’t think that’s an

ADEQUATE explanation.

It may be comforting to many. It may explain a percentage of such.

I don’t think it begins to cover the available evidence.

Certainly the plot thickens.

God has His timing.

And, I think prayer can influence some timing of some things . . . as well as severity.

Now, now.

Naysayers prefer not to be bothered with uncomfortable FACTS.

Pharoah found out he should have paid attention when he ended up at the bottom of the rejoining, collapsing on top of him and his army RED SEA.

LOTS

away.

A growing pile of them . . .

not so easily done—if integrity and honesty is involved in the assessment.

The available evidence is that we live on a seismically active planet and that powerful earthquakes can happen pretty much anywhere on the planet but more frequently in places where tectonic plates abut each other. With that in mind the recent 9.0 earthquakes along the Ring of Fire have been powerful but for seismologists they were hardly unexpected.

I did read one fellow who said that the order of pattern of serious quakes in the Ring of Fire tends to be Indonesia, South America, Asia, North America. He’d cited past quake cycles and says the next quake of serious (8.0+) magnitude to be expected *soon* will be on the Cascadia subduction zone off of Washington & Oregon.

With that in mind I’m not planning on any trips to Aberdeen, Washington which is where a potential 150 foot tsunami could occur at the choke point of the bay between Aberdeen and Cosmopolis. If you look at the shape of that bay you can see that it will funnel a tsunami into a relatively small chokepoint. It’s probably the most dangerous place to live in all of the USA right now.

The globalist oligarchy

has preferred to get more wealthy off of oil.

They have to fund LOTS of treasonous stuff.

Hmmm hard to get the posting window to open. Kept going to the OP.

Interesting about Iceland.

I’ve long felt that the Iceland stuff was just hints of what’s ahead—even for Iceland.

What’s with this problem of getting to the posting window???

I agree Megan, about the PNW.

I have lots of loved ones in the area. A lot of FREEPERS are there.
