Alaska Volcano Erupts

Well, the volcano in Alaska has finally erupted, and did it 5 times at that:

This is the first time in over 20 years this volcano has erupted, I think, but they have been predicting it would do so for months, and now it has. I have even heard that the eruption of this volcano could even change the weather in that area for next winter. :eyebrow:

Wow, it sounds like that one really blew its top quite well. Five times. Man, I bet no one in the area was asleep that night.

Heard this morning that this volcano has erupted once again. I think it's erupted over ten times now, or something close to that. Boy, it is really blowing it's top, lol. :p

As with most natural disasters, I find this frightening and awesome at the same time. Nature can kick our butts.

But this is nothing. Just wait until Yellowstone explodes and the entire state of Wyoming just flies off the globe and into space.

You're right, Caged Wolf, Yellowstone will be a site! I saw some of a documentary or some kind of program telling about Yellowstone and what would happen if it ever blew big time - really scary to think about. :yaknow:

I remember seeing a bit of one documentary about Yellowstone that was even worse than that. It claimed that if that place blew, it would wipe out the entire United States. Kind of scary, if that's that true.
