DIRECTO | El VOLCÁN de LA PALMA entra en ERUPCIÓN



Earthquake swarms on La Palma in the Canary Islands has them initiating a volcano warning  

The difference in this volcano is that it could trigger a huge landslide.

Volcano alert on Canary island La Palma after 4,000 earthquakes
The Spanish authorities have activated the alert for volcanic risk on the Canary island of La Palma after registering more than 4,000 earthquakes in recent days.

The team of experts monitoring the situation say the activity could end up causing a volcanic eruption in the coming days or weeks. However, there are no clear signs of an imminent eruption. The authorities raised the volcanic hazard alert to yellow on Tuesday.

Like there is anything we could do to prevent it.  It’s not as if Spain is doing it on purpose.  I guess the Biden administration could try to sue God, what with Kamala being such an awesome attorney and all. Nature be scary and all that.  Time for people to stock up on French toast supplies, and fill random containers with gasoline.

Conclusion:

1. A catastrophic volcanic eruption on La Palma is not possible.
2. A landslide is possible but not on the scale suggested and is improbable in the next 10,000 years.
3. The computer model is NOT technically correct for short period tsunamis such as proposed to be generated by La Palma, the parameters used are wildly exaggerated and the algorithm is not applicable to this sort of event.
4. If the landslide happens it is unlikely to cause more than a big splash which will not be noticeable further than 100 km from the coast of La Palma.

The landslide is due to massive amounts of water trapped in the rock on the sliding side of the landmass.

Water can get in, but is not getting out, the weight is building. To make matters worse the water is being heated. So pressure is building with NO means of release, what do you call such a device?

damn, thats weird as shit.

I saw a tv show about that like in the 90's and for some reason a few days ago I just remembered it and started thinking about it.

I must have seen a little blip about it somewhere and not registered it.

major disaster if that landslide comes down.

We could build a giant V shaped concrete barrier that funneled all the water into a large tube that fed a long hose and stick the hose up Nancy's ass.

but when your model is run off fake timielines instead of real word numbers.... (ie thousands of years instead of billions and trillions of years. zillions whatever!

Wow, I asked one of my geology profs what single thing would be the worst disaster for the US thinking it had to be yellow stone.  But nope, it was this one.

ETA: I think the models have changed back and forth but lately the big one theory gained ground after some research in doggerland.

If a high tide , earthquake, volcano blast, landslide and moon wobble happen in just the right sequences at the precise times it could be catastrophic.
