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.


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.
