crockett 12-28-2008 08:05 PM

Is that more than normal? I know it's always pretty active there..

maybe the super volcano is ready to go.. if so get the marshmellows out..

dav3 12-28-2008 08:09 PM

If Yellowstone blows, that will surely kill sales. :(

I don't know exactly how 'above normal' that is but there were only two earthquakes in the park the week previous to this spurt of activity. Hoping someone here can provide some further info.

lol well I think if it ever blows, sales will be the last thing you will be worrying about. The entire planet would suffer from that one.

Yellowstone experiences thousands of small earthquakes every year, virtually all of which are undetectable to people. There have been six earthquakes with at least magnitude 6 or greater in historical times, including a 7.5 magnitude quake that struck just outside the northwest boundary of the park in 1959. This quake triggered a huge landslide, which caused a partial dam collapse on Hebgen Lake; immediately downstream, the sediment from the landslide dammed the river and created a new lake, known as Earthquake Lake. Twenty-eight people were killed, and property damage was extensive in the immediate region. The earthquake caused some geysers in the northwestern section of the park to erupt, large cracks in the ground formed and emitted steam, and some hot springs' normally clear water turned muddy.[29] A 6.1 magnitude earthquake struck inside the park on June 30, 1975, but damage was minimal. For three months in 1985, 3,000 minor earthquakes were detected in the northwestern section of the park, during what has been referred to as an earthquake swarm, and has been attributed to minor subsidence of the Yellowstone caldera.[32] Beginning on April 30, 2007, sixteen small earthquakes with magnitudes up to 2.7 occurred in the Yellowstone Caldera for several days. These swarms of earthquakes are common, and there have been 70 such swarms between 1983 and 2006.[44] Seismic activity in Yellowstone National Park continues and is reported hourly by the Earthquake Hazards Program of the U.S. Geological Survey.[45]

as a planet (err, mini planet?) ... anyways ... if they are right with
their 7 circulations ... kiss your ass goodbye ... :helpme

Previous volcanic eruptions in Yellowstone have been some of the largest in world history.

The Mayan calendar date of 2012 has nothing to do with the end of the world. It's the day we cross the galaxy's equator. :2 cents:

papill0n 12-29-2008 01:28 AM

Actually quite the opposite, in fact it could easily cause a global ice age.

czarina 12-29-2008 09:40 AM

darn it! I've never been! I always wanted to go, but been too busy... I hope the park stays intact so I can go one of these days.

czarina 12-29-2008 09:43 AM

....er.... meant "one of these years"

It has been very cold here the last 3/4 days, is that proof?

DWB 12-29-2008 09:50 AM

Fuckin' Bush.

Well, if the "Magma" starts to flow, you Yellow Stone webmasters in your tents and trailers better high tail it out of town. Just watch out for the pyroclastic flow, you can't out run that shit.

JP-pornshooter 12-29-2008 11:05 AM

about 10 years ago there was a lot of seismic activity in Mammoth in the california sierra's.
i was there for new years and the whole place was rolling and shaking, i mean there were small earthquakes every 30 mins or so..
property was cheap up there that year, since then it dissipated and property has skyrocketed since..

sure yellowstone might blow one day, but considering the time line of earth or even the time line of human existence on earth, chances are really small it will happen anytime in the next hundred years.

farkedup 12-29-2008 11:20 AM

the quakes seem to have stopped at only 23. The Lake area is an extremely common area for quakes. Now that it has stopped for so long there is nothing to worry about.

Unlike the SoCal quakes the Yellowstone ones will start small and get bigger.

undersoul 12-29-2008 11:28 AM

very interesting. pretty scary too.
