Art Vandelay Posted December 18, 2004 #2 Share Posted December 18, 2004 An unusually smooth and swiftly growing lava dome within the crater of Washington state's Mount St. Helens volcano is an extraordinary and perplexing event with an unknown outcome, geologists said Tuesday. While no major eruptions are expected in the near term, Huh? At first they say this build up could lead to an unknown outcome and then they turn around and say no major eruptions are expected in the near term? They've never even seen anything like this before so how could they in good faith say there won't be any major eruptions in the near term? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firien Posted December 19, 2004 #3 Share Posted December 19, 2004 I agree Art, how the heck do they know what exactly it will do. It could build and build then decide to explode. As long as it leaves me alone..(I live in WA) then it will be ok lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
