Indonesia raises Bali volcano alert to highest level, airport shut, thousands of tour

[Gerald]

DENPASAR, Indonesia (Reuters) - Indonesia raised its warning for Bali’s Mount Agung volcano to the top level four alert on Monday, closed the holiday island’s airport and told residents near the summit to immediately evacuate, warning of the “imminent” risk of a larger eruption.

I wonder if volcanoes and earthquake awareness in the animal kingdom are the same?

In winter 1975, Chinese officials ordered the evacuation of the city of Haicheng in northeastern Liaoning province the day before a 7.3 magnitude earthquake, based on reports of unusual animal behavior and changes in ground water levels. Still, more than 2,000 people died.

That's an interesting question... I'm thinking it's very likely

No doubt about it! The night of the 5.6 Napa quake 12 years ago (not the 2014 one with the epicenter 10 miles south) the housecats were agitated just prior to the quake, suddenly in the master bedroom and running across the bed at 2 AM when normally they are are asleep on their heated cat cushions. The epicenter at Redwood and Drycreek roads was 500 yards NW from my home.....resulting in a new chimney, and it now seems the back exterior of the house will have to be restucco'd as severe rain into the framing around the bolted foundation was discovered during the current ongoing bath remodel.

I'm ready!! Bring it on!!

Time will tell,whats happen next.:hmmm:

I'm beginning to think we should ask Jim to merge this with the Mount Mannen thread :)

[Gerald]

Two different things!!!

[Eichhörnchen]

But we're waiting and waiting so long... for the both of them now. I just thought we may as well wait for them in the same thread :D

Has it gone yet? No? Oh...

AND THAT'S NOT THE ONLY ONE: Anak Krakatau (THE SON OF KRAKATOA) IS DEVELOPING AT AN ALARMING RATE....AND IF IT'S ANYTHING LIKE 'DADDY'.... :k_confused: Starting in 1927, or approximately 40 years after the eruption of Mount Krakatau, a volcano that emerged is known as Anak Krakatau of the ancient caldera region is still active and still growing in height. High growth speed of about 0.5 meters (20 inches) per month. Every year it becomes higher at about 6 meters (20 feet) and a width of 12 meters (40 feet). Another note to mention the height is about 4 centimeters per year and if calculated, then within 25 years of the addition of high-achieving children Rakata 190 meters (7,500 inches or 500 feet) higher than the previous 25 years. The cause of the high mountain was caused by the material that comes out of the belly of the new mountain. Currently, the height of Anak Krakatau reach about 230 meters above sea level, while Mount Krakatau previously had a height of 813 meters above sea level.
According to Simon Winchester, despite what happened in the life of Krakatau which used to be very frightening realities of geology, seismic and tectonic in Java and Sumatra strange will ensure that what used to happen at some point will happen again. No one knows exactly when the Son of Krakatoa to erupt. Some geologists predict these eruptions will occur between 2015-2083. But the effect of the earthquake in the Indian Ocean base at December 26, 2004 can not be overlooked. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m45dVZF_hg0 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m45dVZF_hg0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ARBjmoHAII (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ARBjmoHAII) https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/01/VEIfigure_en.svg/270px-VEIfigure_en.svg.png (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:VEIfigure_en.svg)KRAKATOA WAS A '6' ON THE VULCANOLOGY SCALE; MT ST HELENS, BOTH IN 1800 AND 1980, WAS A '5' BOTH TIMES ON THE SCALE...https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/06/Volcanic_eruption_map.svg/650px-Volcanic_eruption_map.svg.png
