Just a short entry today. I spent all day putting together the prophecy newsletter and between the heat and the humidity I'm tapped out. Two volcano stories for you--
Warnings of volcanic eruption in Australia
"Scientists are now warning that volcanoes in Western Victoria and South Australia are due to erupt. The prediction comes just hours after two earthquakes hit the state this morning. Using new dating techniques, University of Melbourne scientists have found that the volcanoes usually erupt every 2000 years, with the last eruption at Mt Gambier, South Australia, 5000 years ago. Earth sciences Professor Bernie Joyce says Australia needs a plan in case of an eruption. It comes as Victorians are warned to brace themselves for more tremors after a shallow magnitude quake hit at 11.32am, sending shockwaves through towns and suburbs more than 100 kilometres away. A series of tremors lasting up to 15 seconds have been felt across Melbourne's CBD and southeastern suburbs. A second, smaller quake shook Korumburra, with reports it was again felt in Melbourne, at 12.37pm. Senior seismologist Clive Collins said people should prepare for aftershocks in the coming hours. "There will be aftershocks, that's a certainty," he told the Herald Sun. "We still expect lots of smaller ones. "After the last significant quake in Victoria there were more than 200 aftershocks." The tremors shook Melbourne office buildings and many homes across the state, including Warragul, Ferntree Gully, Sunbury and as far north as Melbourne Airport."
I had written three days ago that scientists were warning that Hekla in Iceland may erupt. I put up a map showing Eyja, Hekla and Katla were in close proximity and noted that when one of the three erupts then one of the others usually does as well. Today this is being reported:
Possibly Small Eruption in South Iceland Volcano Katla
There was sudden flooding and melting of a glacier and the thought is that a small eruption caused it.
"A glacial flood, probably, from the volcano Katla in Mýrdalsjökull has disrupted the Ring Road (highway no.1), by the river Múlakvísl on Mýrdalssandur in south Iceland, tearing the bridge across Múlakvísl. The road is closed between Höfdabrekka, east of Vík, and the river Skálm, near Álftaver. The flood is thought be the result of a small eruption underneath the icecap of Mýrdalsjökull, probably in the Katla crater, ruv.is reports. “At least this is not a large eruption, the Katla eruption people have been waiting for,“ geophysicist Freysteinn Sigmundsson told ruv.is “If it is a volcanic eruption, it is a small event and possibly only geothermal water.“ The Civil Protection Department has issued a warning to people in the area, to beware of sulphurate smell near the river, as it might be poisonous sulphurate gas."
In this news article, they write, "Small eruption at Katla"
"For the people of Iceland, the past few years must feel like the old saying "when it rains, it pours': we've seen two significant eruptions, one at Eyjafjallajökull and one at Grimsvötn, in less than a year. Earlier this week, there was news that another Icelandic volcano, Hekla, was showing signs of unrest, although it was unclear whether they pointed towards an eruption. Then, the switcheroo, where instead of anything at Hekla, we get a surprise jokulhlaup (glacial outburst flood) at Katla on the southern end of the island."
His description reminds me of the people at a tennis match when their heads swing this way then that way then this way...just as we look to one p art of the world for an expected event, another one pops up over there where we least expected it. In 2008 the Chilean volcano Chaiten erupted suddenly and is still erupting. Volcanologists say that Chaiten volcano had not erupted in 9500 years. Last month, the Eritrean volcano Nabro suddenly erupted for the first time ever. In Java, a new volcano was formed within two days. Fisherman were stunned. Three weeks ago I reported that there were 35 earthquakes at the Cuidad Juarez/El Paso border of the US that have geologists and seismologists thinking a new volcano may be born there soon, and a joint team of scientists from US/Mexico went to investigate. Volcanic eruptions from existing volcanoes have increased. Two days ago, "Palermo - An uncountable series of quakes have been recorded in Sicily. The strongest one had a magnitude of 3.1 and was recorded in the province of Messina, along the northern coast of Sicily that has been subjected to a persisting series of seismic events in the last few weeks. The quake was detected 3:01 am at a depth of a little more than 8 km. In the same area, a lighter 2.3 magnitude quake was recorded at 1:58 at approximately the same depth. . ." Today, ash from Mt. Etna closed an Italian airport. What next?!
Stay tuned, and be glad you chose to repent of your sins and accept the free pardon Jesus offers. If you have not repented, heed these wonderful words:
"Seek the LORD while he may be found;
call on him while he is near.
Let the wicked forsake his way
and the evil man his thoughts.
Let him turn to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon." (Isaiah 55:6-7)
"For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great." (Psalm 25:11)

I've been reading this blog (Eruptions) for several months. The only volcano that has 'surprised' scientists is the one in Eritrea, and that mostly due to the fact that no one is allowed in to study the region. Etna has been erupting for several years and the recent eruption is 'normal' for that particular volcano. I encourage people to read what Erik Klemmeti has to say about Australia http://bigthink.com/ideas/39155 I have learned a LOT reading Eruptions blog and the comments on each post. Very interesting stuff. Something looks to be happening in Hawaii, too - so be expecting it.
ReplyDeleteChaiten was an unusual thing as was Nabro. Not all eruptions are surprising and not all are unexpected, you're right. But that's not the point. The end times is characterized by an increase in frequency and intensity of all manner of 'usual' events, like the size and intensity of the Phoenix dust storm, mixed with the surprising. Phoenix always gets dust storms. This was the biggest and meanest ever, though. Similarly with volcanoes, the number of eruptions, kind of eruptions, intensity of eruptions impacting normal life (airport closures, towns evacuated) is the thing to watch here.
ReplyDeleteYes, I've been watching Hawaii and volcanologists are saying something is going on there.
I bookmarked BigThink/eruptions and followed the blog on twitter. thank you for the resource.
So, I'm glad I don't live near a volcano. Yet. And that seems to be the keyword (yet) in light of that stuff happening down by the border.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about the volcanoes for the most part. In fact, I was reading Eruptions when Chaiten and Nabro both went off and got to experience them vicariously (sp?) through that blog as they happened (ended up staying up way past my bedtime both nights). Chaiten gave off signals that something was going to happen, Nabro was discovered by an Eruptions post-er as it began and as I was reading in-coming posts. Very exciting stuff. Now there have been some rumblings on Vesuvius as well that may or may not be human caused - so we'll see! Plus the recent very large mud flow on Rainier.....?
ReplyDeleteLast year I was out star gazing with my younger son and husband. I mentioned then that the night sky looked 'different' to me than it used to. I also mentioned just 3 weeks ago that it seemed to be lighter much later than it used to be for the latitude we live at. Imagine my 'surprise' when I saw this video today: Inuit People on Pole Shift http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HZ_Dvkxi-8&feature=player_embedded . I figure these men really do know what they're talking about. I think the earth has shifted somehow - maybe from the recent large earthquakes, plus the volcanic activity going on? Whatever the cause for the differences, I think it is one of the changes in the stars, planets and sun that is going to/has happened during the End Time.
I still think humankind is going to give the credit to Mother Nature until the very end, refusing to acknowledge that God has anything to do with these things. It's exciting to watch it happen from my nice comfy air conditioned flat, in the knowledge of my salvation through the work of Jesus Christ on the cross. It's a whole 'nother thing to experience it as it is actually happening TO you, with no hope in anything other than natural processes. How terrifying!
