Agung Volcano - Alert Level IV - World Wide Climate Altering Potential

I don't know anything about volcanoes but some people I know do and they are freaked out by this one. Over 135,000 people have been evacuated from the area.
One thing of interest is that large tropical eruptions can alter the global climate. So, if this eruption is large enough, it could cause global temps to cool, maybe even as soon as this winter. More importantly, it could alter ENSO and flip things back to El Nino faster. That could help prevent a '04/'05 like repeat because, if things don't change, we very well could see another hyper active hurricane season next year.
Anyway, for updates.

It’s hot as frick so I hope it can cause temps to cool.

Only thing I know about volcanos is that if that one in Yellowstone goes off we can bend over and kiss our asses good bye

Hurricane season would be the least of our worries

You mean if Yellowstone goes off.

Big enough volcano would cause a year or two of famine/crop failure.
After krakatoa it snowed in new york and new england in summer and killed the crops. Similar in western europe, Ireland.
Mt tuba is thought to have wiped out all but 6,000 humans, world wide, according to our dna.

For fricks sake let's just get this shite over with. I wish the fricking mother fricking bitch would stop being a cock tease and follow through or else GTFO. Doomsday this, destruction here, extinction that.

The climate people are wrong. Every time.

People don't realize how calm this recent period has been on Earth.The geological record points to many events that would cripple the modern world.

Update in English:
A. Volcano Monitoring Data:
Seismic:
Recorded volcanic earthquakes still show high numbers. These earthquakes indicate brittle failure inside the volcano caused by magma movement.
Calculated magnitudes of earthquakes have continued to increase. Magnitude of the largest volcanic earthquake during the crisis period is M4.3 on September 27, 2017 at 13:12 Central Indonesian Time (UTC+8) and more earthquakes are being felt recently by people around Agung and Batur areas, and some of the biggest earthquakes are even felt in Denpasar and Kuta areas.
Volcanic earthquakes are estimated to be located within 20 km of the volcano's summit.
Satellite remote sensing :
Satellites have detected new steam emissions and thermal areas within the summit crater; these areas have expanded during the past week and now include a new area of emissions in the center of the crater.
Visual observations:
White steam clouds are occasionally observed rising 50-200 m above the summit; and currently, the emissions activity are observed to be more frequent.
After a M4.2 earthquake on September 26, 2017 at 16:27 Central Indonesian Time (UTC+8), a larger white steam cloud was emitted to a height of around 500 m above the summit.
Deformation:
Analysis of tiltmeter data suggests some inflation (swelling) of Mount Agung.
B. Analysis:
Based on the analysis of current monitoring data, at this moment, the probability of an eruption is higher than the probability of no eruption; however, the probability may change at any time depending on current monitoring data.
If an eruption does occur, it is most likely to be small at first; however, a large eruption may follow. The size of future eruptions cannot be determined with certainty.
The exact date and time of future eruptions cannot be predicted, however; CVGHM will issue warnings when conditions change and eruptions are more certain.
It is still safe to travel to Bali; however, visitors should not enter the restricted areas near the volcano (currently at distances of 12 km to the southeast to southwest and north to northeast and 9 km elsewhere. CVGHM has worked with the Indonesian National Agency for Disaster Management (BNPB) to develop warnings for eruptive activity.
Visitors to Bali and local people should stay aware of hazard warnings from Indonesian government officials. Current information can be obtained via CVGHM's web and mobile phone application Magma Indonesia (magma.vsi.esdm.go.id) and via Google Playstore.

No too mention that modern humans cant take care of themselves

Dr. Sandra Lee needs to take care of that thing.

Will this cause a delay in the iPhone X ?

From space, that volcano looks like a butthole.
Posted on 9/29/17 at 9:22 pm to rds dc
Haha, volcanoes aren't real.

Any of the super volcanoes blowing would drastically alter the earth. I think there are 7. 3 of which are in US
