How much CO2 did it put into the air?
From 4 days ago. They might wanna hurry.
The last one in 1883 blew up 2/3rds of the island.
That one went on from May till August before the grand finale.
BTW, the concusion from that one went around the world seven times. It dropped the temps by 2 to 3 degrees worldwide.
Tambora, dropped them by about 5 degrees. Tambora, I believe, was a VEI 7? Gotta check. I dunno what the VEI index was for the “parent” of this one.
Cumbra Vieja in the Canary Islands might cause an issue for some locations on the east coast if it ever slides a big chunk into the ocean. Lots of could(s), would(s), might(s) and may(s) in the piece but algores sea level rise due to possible glow bull discombobulation would pale in comparison. Surfs up dudes.
Is this the volcano that . . .you know, is the “Krakatau East of Java?”

More to come.
Just like a pimple popping, only bigger. Much bigger.
I still blame it on the hooche-cooche dance of KRAKATOA KATIE!
Krakatoa Katy, She ain’t no lady,
when she starts to shake her sarong,
Now Katys out in full array
For Mighty Mouse has saved the day,
for Kathy, Kathy, Krakatoa Katy.
Don’t you just hate when that happens?
