Mount St. Helens Lets Off Some Steam

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the look-out-below dept.

jdray writes "The cube farm is all a twitter right now, as Mt. St. Helens is spewing out a steam plume, and you can see if from our building. The cam for the volcano seems to be down, but we just saw a news helicopter from KATU, one of our local news stations, headed that direction. They should have some content up shortly." Other readers suggest: KOIN, KOIN webcams, Kiro TV, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, or CNN.

    Geologically, this is fascinating. For the last few weeks, high concentration of hurricanes (on both coasts), a few earthquakes (on both coasts), now dual volcano events. I wonder if the collection and fusion of all this data is gonna identify that some global event happened within the environment?

    The past may have had extreme natural events similarly, but were they so "focused" like in the last 3 months?

    Maybe the earth had to reboot itself due to some Y2K issue?
