Damn kim, I thought of you immediately when I heard about this..I knew that they were down playing it yesterday. C'mon "old magma"????
Old magma has another name... Rock [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img]

Good luck. I hope the sleeper stays that way.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Rainier is a valid fear at this point. With all the activity on that coast (just as everyone else said) it is to be expected. Fault lines shaking and volcanoes suddenly springing back to active states. Never a good sign.Originally posted by kim?spawntoys.com:
the eruption (2nd one expected this weekend) has been categorized a level 3...basically the same shit the happened in 1980.....could happen anytime this weekend..they have already evacuated the area 10 miles around the mountain...i hope the wind is blowing east.......and yes, Im really afraid this one is going to "wake up" Rainier...if that one blows we could be in some trouble here
WOW, check this out, I found a list of all earthquakes occurring at Mt. St. Helens since 09-01, 2003.

Look at the build up as you get closer to todays date!

I just hope they don't mess around with down playing any more of this. That got some people killed in 1980's blast. My brother in law's #1 hobby is studying geology, I was a student in college and when they used the term "old magma"
we were both "like WTF is this crap??" In all our books on Plate Tectonics, Volcanic activity , Seismic activity etc.. neither of us has ever heard that term.. The fact that they're coming out with crapola like that gives me reason for wonder...
First Mount St. Helens steam Emission occurred at 12:02 PM PDT Oct. 1, 2004 PNSN crater station SEP was broken or destroyed in the blast. Seismicity level dropped immediately following .... and then started up again a few hours later .....
Second steam emission at 12:14 PM PDT on Oct. 2 was followed by low-frequency volcanic tremor indicative of magma movement. Alert level raised to 3.

Mount St. Helens Notice of Volcano Alert, October 2, 2004
A notice of Volcano Alert (Alert Level 3) was issued today at 2:00 p.m. PDT
Immediately after the small steam emission at 12:15, seismic activity changed from principally rock breakage events to continuous low-frequency tremor, which is indicative of magma movement. We are increasing the alert level to Volcano Alert the highest alert level indicating that an eruption could be imminent.
The cause and outcome of the accelerating unrest is uncertain. Explosions from the vent could occur suddenly and without further warning. During such explosions the dome and crater floor are at greatest risk from ballistic projectiles, but the rim of the crater and flanks of the volcano could also be at risk. Explosions would also be expected to produce ash clouds that rise several to tens of thousands of feet above the crater rim and drift downwind. Currently wind forecasts from the National Weather Service, combined with eruption models, show that ash clouds will move to the northwest. If ash emissions are large, drifting ash could affect downwind communities. Minor melting of the glacier could trigger debris flows from the crater that are large enough to reach the Pumice Plain. There is very low probability that downstream communities would be impacted by these hydrologic events. .
We continue to monitor the situation very closely and will issue additional updates as warranted, whether activity escalates or returns to background levels.
My wife and I are planning to move out of Florida. Tired of the hurricanes. WTH, volcano activity in the state we are moving to? Guess I'll have to make sure our house has a steel roof. I'll be up there looking West, wearing a hard hat, sitting up on my roof, buttocks clenched, yelling, "Is that all you got?!?!"
EQ, move to cali mang, all we have is shaking ground, he'll it's fun, there was a big quake where i live a few years ago when i was swimming, i swear if my pool were longer i coulda surfed on it! IT ROCKED... no pun intended
So... you think she's gonna blow?
