“When it goes, next week, next year or next century, it’s going to kill many hundreds of thousands with little warning.

Even if there is substantial geological warnings, people will not heed them.................”

Yeah it will be real bad. Escape routes pre blow if there is a warning is North or South, maybe East if 50 miles out is considered safe? (Aberdeen / Olympic Peninsula) When it goes basically only North is an escape route for those that live in Tacoma and North of = Seattle.

Highway 5 will a cluster cluck heading towards Canada, a killing field. Clean up will be next to impossible and will cause civil unrest when there isn’t enough 1st Responders and money to clean up and bury the dead. (if even found)

Red Badger, like Walt Whitman, contains multitudes.

His response is right out of the USGS description
—
Like they are such expert at predicting volcanic eruptions by Super Volcanoes .. gotta keep the public pacific and relaxed, can’t have panic.

[RinaseaofDs]

Wiping out Seattle with molten rock wouldn’t be the worst outcome contemplated. You could leave with a car and be good

[FroggyTheGremlim]

Yeah, my bad -I thought it was Denali.

[TnTnTn]

💯

[RinaseaofDs]

The best thing that could happen.

[RinaseaofDs]

Adams would have to go too.

[RinaseaofDs]

Not the worst outcome.

Exactly what I was thinking, so I laughed.
Then I saw who posted it and I laughed out loud!
I think our teenage turntables were twins.

[9YearLurker]

Just don’t be Legionnaires’.

Is that pronounced like it is spelled?

Another resource. Volcano Discovery

[SkyDancer]

Viral ‘eruption threat’ at ‘America’s deadliest volcano’ Mount Rainier not accurate, PNSN says

[Red Badger]

[rlmorel]

That is very true. I was thinking of the scenarios involving lahar flows that evidence shows happened in the past. You are correct though, if it explodes, that is a very different ball of wax.

In that case, it would very likely be the worst humanitarian disaster in recorded history, given the population density, and the likely catastrophic affects of an explosion of a Supervolcano like that.

[Red Badger]

Probably.....................

[DCBryan1]

If Mount Rainier goes, it will probably just kill Seattle and the suburbs.

So you are saying no Americans would be harmed. Great!
