Just got done watching a History Channel special about 'How The Earth Was Made' that explained all about the Yellowstone supervolcano. They were saying that since the start of 2009, the frequency of earthquake activity has increased 4x as often, and is gaining in strenght. Also, since 2006, some areas of the park have had an uplift of about 6 inches. There was also a tourist ship that had been used to travel the big lake, and it sank some 40+ years ago, and the uplift has recently brought it up to the surface.
My question is this, and maybe Mike could help explain if you're reading this, I searched the subject here and saw that one prediction was for it to erupt in May 2008. What is the possability that you could have been one year early, what was this predition based from (on the 7x ? scale) and IF it does go off soon, could this be a substitution for some other upcoming events such as the double earthquake or something similar?

Hi JJ yes we had discussed Yellowstone quite a bit, but that thread got deleted by accident. The possibility of Yellowstone erupting any time soon is unknown, however it will erupt at some point. The ideal situation would be a gradual outgassing and multipe small vents. However, if the pressure builds through the lack of an outgassing to a point where vents become large and combine, then we will have the magma chamber collapse in on itself and create a massive explosion. The resulting pumice and ash cloud would blanket north america and block out sunlight and would eventually travel the world in the stratosphere. While there it would continue to block sunlight and reduce global temperatures and cause severe weather events. It would result in a severe shift in the climate of the planet. In effect it would actually act as a nuclear winter and would halt man made climate change. While technically that would be a good thing, the long term damage by a massive eruption would effectively reduce the majority of North America, Europe and Asia to tundra and mass migrations to Africa, South America, South Asia and Australia would take place.
Not a happy thought! |

Hi JJ111,
To answer your question, the prediction that Yellowstone would erupt in May 2008 had to be based on the only instance in history of a MAJOR volcanic eruption occurring in the mainland United States. As you know, all predictions using base 7 require the use of historical precedents (one or more) ...
We cannot know the actual date that Yellowstone, a supervolcano, last erupted. There is no way to determine a past date that exact when dealing with hundreds of thousands of years. Thus, the only precedent we have for Yellowstone is a normal volcanic eruption in the United States, but one that was large and fairly destructive for the region. Mount St Helen's is the only modern example of such an eruption, which occurred in May 1980 ... 28 years before the projected vector of May 2008.
Also, when projecting an event as catastrophic as a supervolcanic eruption happening in our time, one must believe the times we are living in are sufficiently apocalyptic ... otherwise, it could just as easily happen 100 years from now, or 200 years from now, or more.
Other base 7 precedents indicated a "Big One" should hit the West Coast early in 2008. Thus, the "double earthquake" scenario: one large quake followed a few months later in May by a massive seismic disruption of the entire West Coast during the Yellowstone eruption.
All the base 7 indications were very strong that one or the other, if not both, events would occur in 2008. I am frankly very surprised, based on 13 years of actual experience watching events play out according to the base 7 system, and a few centuries of research showing past trends also being fairly consistent, that at least the "Big One" failed to happen last year.
Yes, Yellowstone could still erupt this year, but if it does not, then I would start looking in the direction of Lake Toba (where all the action currently is nearby) ... if there is to be a supervolcanic eruption at all.

| Ok, all of that makes sense. I do have a couple of new ideas though. Since Yellowstone is on a larger scale being a Super volcano, wouldn't the 7 system have to be used from another super volcano eruption, not just regional location? (not that it makes things any easier) I know that they estimate Yellowstone to be about 40,000 years overdue, based on the estimated eruption average of about 600,000 years. |

Hi JJ,
As I mentioned above, that is not possible.
The most recent eruption of any supervolcano on earth WAS Yellowstone. And, as I said above,
"We cannot know the actual date that Yellowstone, a supervolcano, last erupted. There is no way to determine a past date that exact when dealing with hundreds of thousands of years."
Thus, if we are going to attempt to date the potential for a supervolcanic eruption occurring at Yellowstone using the base 7 system, we are forced to use a "normal" volcanic eruption from the general location of Yellowstone. There is only one: Mount St Helen's in May 1980.

hey guys,
just wondering what do u currently think about the severe aftershocks rattling Italy/ Rome right now. Perharps this is a sign from god pointing out that this is the "beginning of the end".. as Rome and Vatican / Christianity will start falling.. in few months?
Aftershock hits Italy quake zone
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7988832.stm
anyways, lets watch out for more earthquakes right now.. if Planet X is approaching the weather will change more and more worldwide and erathquake will start to rattle in abundance...
Welcome to the countdown to World War III:

The big quake and the major aftershock in Italy and the major quake in the Pacific Northwest yesterday continue to point to severe instability along all plate boundaries.
Could be a sign of Nibirus approach indeed! |

Will Yellowsone Finally Erupt?
