A friend of mine flew over it yesterday and took this photo. The ash punched itself all the way to the stratosphere this time.

This is a big caliber area in terms of....trouble by the way. Just hope it peters out soon.

encouraged to stay indoors? :huh I seem to recall ash is heavy and will make roofs cave in, if anything you need to stay in a car or bunker.

ya, stay in doors...as in, keep your exposure to it to a bare minimum, regardless of bunker, tank, missle silo or whatever...breathing it could lead to an ugly death

Right because when ash gets in the lungs it forms an almost concrete mixture, but having your roof cave in isn't any better? You need to put a cloth over your mouth and get under something with a sturdier roof.

I have a feeling that the government of a volcanic island has a little bit better idea of what to do in this situation than you do.
Just saying.

It's like fine crusted rocks.
I have been outside most of the day. I keep my milking cows inside, and feed every other animal in the pastures with last years crops to prevent them from moving too much and pasturing.
It's somewhat looking more ugly than it really is, and the first reason is approaching the problem with a cool head and no panic.

Yes, you are.

But I suppose you will someday learn the difference between being popular in a good way, and in a bad way.

Kids like you make the sophomores I've gone to school with look semi-intelligent, and I've shared the classroom
with quite a few IQ lacking baboons.

Seems like the eruption is finished.
No goodbye to those incidents though, and there is one ready to pop only some 30 miles from my home.
Awww....tedious....

The ash formed during the beginning explosive phase of an eruption is by far the worst because it has jagged edges.

Glad to hear it's settling down some Angus.  I've been worried about the ranching there with this one, isn't this the time of year for all the lambs to be born?
Title: Re: Another Volcano
Post by: Angus on May 27, 2011, 06:45:42 AM
Yup, mid lambing season.
Luckily very low casualties. And no people.
And about the ash, it is correct. It's quite nasty on your eyes.
