Who would have guessed living on an active volcano would be a bad idea?
Still remember St Helens in WA state, vaguely. Local small town had a "pretty good" airshow. It appeared to be big clouds approaching. Next thing I know, there's basically a huge exodus of aircraft leaving the area. Later that afternoon, the dust started falling. We did not get it ANYWHERE nearly as bad as some parts of the state. The thing generated huge mud and debri flows, and mowed down trees for miles

The Island Park Caldera supereruption (2.1 million years ago), which produced the Huckleberry Ridge Tuff, was the largest, and produced 2,500 times as much ash as the 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption...." I left PI before Pinatubo went up but I saw pics of my old stomping grounds that had ash drifts 8 feet high, looked like gray snow.
This is not science, this is imagination (millions of years ago).The Island Park Caldera supereruption (2.1 million years ago)

Just bend over and kiss your a$$ good-by..............
I was stationed at Ft Lewis WA when St Helens went up. Had just gotten out of my car and me and two pals were walking across the parking lot when BOoM! We hit the dirt and looked South to see the ash cloud rising up through the air. We had no idea it was a volcano and at first naturally thought....NUKE!! Wild few minutes there... We left the base two days later on the way to Oregon to have maneuvers on the beach and went right past there...looked bad, real bad. Ash choking up rivers, all sorts of cars and trucks abandoned because ash had stopped the motors. Trees down everywhere. What a mess. Even at Ft Lewis there was ash about 3" deep everywhere...

They need to sacrifice a virgin and fast.
