The tallest active geyser in the world may be erupting for the first time since 2014, according to the National Park Service.

 

#Yellowstone National Park employees reported seeing the Steamboat Geyser erupt on Thursday evening, the park service announced Friday. Park geologists then compared the accounts to thermal sensors in the area and determined it “could be a series of minor eruptions.”

Yellowstone on brink of ERUPTION as giant geyser starts to BLOW

A YELLOWSTONE National Park geyser could be on the brink of erupting, experts have warned.

Signs of activity have been recorded from its powerful Steamboat Geyser – the world’s tallest – in recent days.

It is the first time it has shown the signs of potential eruption since 2014, reports CBS News.

Experts say there “could be a series of minor eruptions” at the US tourist hotspot.

But the geyser lies 15 miles away from a supervolcano, which has recently been declared as showing signs of “strain”.

The supervolcano has long been the subject of fears it may one day blow its top, and the activity of the Steamboat Geyser is likely to throw it back into the limelight.

The geyser can shoot water of more than 300 feet.

However Jacob Lowenstern, a former scientist in charge of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory, believes a major eruption is a long way off.

He said: “Minor earthquakes occur in the Yellowstone area 50 or more times per week, but a major eruption is not expected in the foreseeable future.”

Daily Star Online previously revealed how scientists believe they have found a major breakthrough in when the supervolcano previously erupted.

A team at the University of California determined it last blew its top 630,000 years ago.

And astonishing new research suggests there was not just one eruption, but two, 170 years apart.

Geologist Jim Kennett said: “We discovered here that there are two ash-forming super-eruptions 170 years apart and each cooled the ocean by about 3°C.”

#SteamboatGeyser: World’s tallest active #geyser eruption come from deep in #Yellowstone

The tallest active geyser in the world may be erupting for the first time since 2014, according to the National Park Service.

Yellowstone National Park employees reported seeing the Steamboat Geyser erupt on Thursday evening, the park service announced Friday. Park geologists then compared the accounts to thermal sensors in the area and determined it “could be a series of minor eruptions.”

Wednesday, Sept 3, 2014: Steamboat Geyser in Yellowstone’s Norris Back Basin erupted unexpectedly Wednesday evening. Rosa Prasser, a Yellowstone Ranger, witnessed the eruption at 11:00 pm.

Steamboat Geyser is in the Norris Geyser Basin, which is currently closed to vehicle access for spring plowing.

Unlike Old Faithful, which, as its name indicates, erupts on a relatively predictable timeline, Steamboat Geyser is impossible to anticipate.

It went eight years without a major eruption before shooting water into the sky on July 31, 2013 and again on Sept. 3, 2014, according to a 2014 report by the United States Geological Survey.

Historically, the geyser has gone anywhere from four days to 50 years in between eruptions.

Yellowstone National Park contains more than 10,000 thermal features and sits on top of the world’s largest volcano, capable of sending 2,000 times more matter into the sky than the Mount St. Helens eruption. The last volcanic eruption at Yellowstone was 70,000 years ago.

Steamboat eruptions, as with other geysers in Yellowstone, have little if any connection to the deeper volcano, said Jacob Lowenstern, former scientist in charge of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory.

“Their plumbing systems are in the upper few hundred feet of the Earth,” he said. “As you get hotter and hotter and deeper and deeper, the permeability and ability of water to move around shuts off. There’s not a whole lot of connectivity of the reservoirs once you get deep.”

      Many volcanoes, even yellow stone, sometimes have a vent to violently release steam, gas, lava , bits of rock, etc…

      So much fear porn has been written/posted about Yellowstone in that every burp makes people think a major eruption is imminent.

      It is possible and what can a person do other than prepare. I have reard/read that there is an increase in volcanic activity in places where activity has never been recorded or has been dormant for hundreds of years.

      Not on my vacation list this year. It would be my luck, it would erupt when I visited. :???:

      Yellowstone leaks pressure so it will not be able to get enough to blow

      Yellow Stone is just one of many Super Volcanoes, which if any went off it would cause untold world destruction. Now we are told by one in authority that this world is to become a burned out cinder that this world is headed for ultimate destruction as Jesus told them in Matt chap 24 all about Earth and its end times also the book of Revelation goes deeper into end times, just remember all things were made for him or by him whether visible or invisible. God is holding it all together until the end Are you saved ? Time is short, his return may be today, or tomorrow so no one knows when not even the son of man but the Father only, but a clue has been told us in a phrophecy, when Israel is reconstituted as a Nation Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: Mat 24:33, So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Mat 24:34, Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.In 1948 Israel became a Nation again after 1,800 plus years in diaspora. Now 1948 to 2018 is 60 years closing in on a generation of time. Find a good church who will baptize for remission of Sin so you can be saved and added to the coming new Kingdom, new heaven and Earth is coming.
