Cleveland Blows!
Geologists are on alert after the Cleveland Volcano spewed an ash plume up to 20,000 feet.
The Alaska Volcano Observatory reports that the volcano on Alaska's Aleutians Islands erupted late Friday, prompting the observatory to raise the mountain's threat level to code orange.
The observatory says satellite views showed the ash cloud drift northeast about 375 miles and disperse over the Bering Sea.
Cleveland is about 940 miles southwest of Anchorage, on a remote and uninhabited island.
The observatory says the 5,676-foot volcano's last significant eruption began in February 2001 and eventually produced a lava flow that reached the ocean.
It says ash emissions from Cleveland were most recently seen in June.

Wonder if there is a correlation with the recent quake activity around the Pacific Rim?
I'm on top of the New Madrid fault; maybe I'd better check up on my quake insurance...

It would have to be solar inactivity.

It's the same ol' thing as yesterday...

look up the tectonic plate maps and see if there's a connection, pressures being moved long the lines and stuff. it's all part of the same machine, ultimately.

Yeah, I hate it when the brothers put the low-profile tires and rotating hubs on their SUV's...
Looks ridiculous!

Have you read "The New Madrid Earthquakes" by James Penick? There are lots of accounts from the newspapers and personal diaries from the times of the big quakes Dec 1811-Feb 1812 that ranged in magnitude from 8.3 to 8.7.

sorry, thor, I meant to ask - will this have any effects on where you are or is it remote enough to be interesting but not a threat?

I haven't read it, but trust me, not a major quake event happens anywhere in the world without the local news reliving the event...

Growing up in Kansas, I was taught to distrust Missourians because the wounds of war were still fresh...
(I also learned to be nervous around the white kids and their cowboy culture, not that I blame John Wayne...) |

Missourians are proud to be Bushwackers...
This always gives me a good laugh when I drive by the Woman's college and they're flying the "Bushwacker Days" pennants...
