Could this be the dreaded Yellowstone Caldera Blowup that George Snoory of Coast To Coast AM, and others, have been warning us about?

Such an event could destroy America and result in possibly over 100,000,000 lives lost.

To be fair, if it exploded, it could partially block out the sun with ash for an extended period of time, changing the temperatures and just slaughtering the crops.

Park geologists compared first-hand reports with readings from remote U.S. Geological Survey thermal sensors and said the eruption may have been one in a series of minor eruptions.

The sensors are now offline, but staff are troubleshooting the equipment and may deploy new ones.

Steamboat Geyser's activity is highly irregular. It was dormant from 1911 to 1961.

Yeah, but you left out the part where the geyser last errupted in 2014.

Clickbait news.

You laugh, but if it did actually erupt in full, it could be a world ender. At the very least, a full eruption would irreparably destroy half the US infrastructure, water supply, crops, etc.

It would create acidic rain, block out the sun, and create unbreathable conditions for a large geographic area.


ETA:

Note I said "erupt in full". It would have to really Peter North nut for this extreme scenario.

I had a series of eruptions this weekend.

Everything is fine.

Don't worry yourself.

Did you read the article or just the headline? Its the Steamboat geyser it erupted in 2014, think of old faithful but constipated for 4 years.

What does that have to do with being 'fair'?

Did you just make this up?

Predictions wildly vary even from "expert" to "expert".
