re: Iceland getting 1,400 quakes as fears of eruption grow. State of Emergency issued.

Not sure how much better that have gotten in 40 years but the Mt St Helens event around 1980 had people knowing that it was coming sooner or later only to end up stranded and dying in the eruption because they were cut off from all possible escape routes.
They knew something was going to happen but not exactly when and certainly not that the entire side of the volcano was going to blow open.

So a friend of mine had a trip to Iceland planned in 2020 and it got cancelled due to covid. He just started planning the trip again and I told him that God does not want you to go to Iceland.

I watched a YouTube video recently on the eruption of Mt. St. Helens. They had a man that lived up there that refused to leave his house. They knew about it well in it advance that it was going to blow, but some refused to evacuate or came back home because it was 2 months between the first stages of the eruption and the main eruption.

The saddest story for me was the photographer that got cut off and couldn’t escape the eruption.

Was that the guy to rolled his film back into his camera and laid on top of it so the film might survive?
If so this was one of his last pictures.

Yep. There’s a short doc on YT about the eruption with some of the geologists who were there before telling the story leading up to eruption. They talk about him and how he got stuck there. Watched it a year or so ago and that part was just really sad.

Just what we need. Another reason for the insurance rates to go up.

I have to say, even if this magma never made it to the surface in a full eruption, not sure I would be able to go back living there, just knowing there is a magma river flowing about 800m below me.

You didn’t really have to say that

Came across this while going through the Iceland threads. Damn, it would sort of suck to accidentally hit magma while drilling, I guess it was good it didn't spew up at them.
