Cumbre Vieja volcano post eruption phase! Time to say goodbye for volcano-thank you for all support :)

That 3 ft. high wall of water might break up your boat at that speed. Probably will.

I don't think they would tell anybody me until the highways are full.

One thing you can do right now is open your Google maps and save maps offline of the areas that you will move through to evacuate. This will come in handy if or when mobile data is swamped during aass evacuation.

In Florida, if you are on west coast get to Gainesville then hit 441 if time is tight, that runs through Starke which should be safe zone as it's highest elevation in Florida.

9 hours is plenty of time to get out of FL. I’m basing this on others’ ignorance of on-going events for most of the drive. This allows you to high-tail it up an interstate ( tho I’d probably take the turnpike as it’s in the middle of the state) and be pretty far north before the panicking hoardes catch on that something is wrong and take to the highways.

You better go more than 20 miles if you're in south Florida.

Well…?? Why no more updates on this mess?

Guess I'm old and cynical, but I don't care too much about the folks who live on the Atlantic coast. They chose to live there for the beauty of the beaches, the "East coast experience", and other reasons. If they were truly educated they would have learned that there is always the possibility of tsunamis happening where ocean water touches terra firma.
They put their lives in harms way and when the poo poo hits the fan they act like they are the ones who have been put out. If they moved to the center of the US there would be very few ways to die from mother nature. Sure, tornados are abundant in the mid west, but they are like hitting a mosquito with a two hundred pound anvil. Very few folks die from tornados every year, which is good because of the way the information gets out, quickly. When a tsunami is fixing to hit the east coast all roads will be clogged and the skies will be filled with planes heading west. The little guy will be left watching the water quickly hit him in the face as his car sits in a hundred mile long parking lot.

Looks like DutchSinse did a video on this late last night...

Any new updates? How serious is this?

I read this thread before I went to bed and it produced some awful dreams. I’ve read a lot of doom threads on here before and never had a bad dream about it. Thanks GLP.

Any new updates? How serious is this?

Based on my observations, during the day, it is entering a cyclical pattern. So this is good news from a doom perspective. The repeating pattern is in almost the exact same geographical location.

The bad news is the intervals are still too far apart, and it's still too deep. Although it is definitely approaching the 7km range. So don't go shaving any tomatoes at this time.

If it is forming into a cyclical pattern, it will do the next one in an hour or so. Then the frequency should slowly drop until boom.

Maybe at 6 o'clock.
Maybe at 8 o'clock.
At 12 o'clock it formed a semi-pattern.
At 2 o'clock it formed a definite pattern.

3:30 - 4:00 should be the next one, but I will be close to sleep land at that time.

If it as 3:30, it will happen faster as the intervals are shortening quickly. As in I might sleep through it.

If it is 4:00, it could be a day or two before boom time.


And if you gentlemen keep pacing that way, you will wear a hole in my floor. The DOOM will come when the doom is ready.

Edit: Correction, I can see that exact spot has semi patterns earlier. It's also the epicenter of that 3.9 on the title. If this was anywhere else, I would say 'aftershocks', but after reading about the screw pattern. I would say 'damned if I know'.

Damnit that map is on fire!

So why yare these not on [link to earthquake.usgs.gov (secure)]

Can’t find an official explanation. Probably the same reason that they don’t list the weird eqs under the subduction zone in the PNW.

Closest thing to a mountain in S. Florida is still a mole hill.

Bok Tower Gardens, in Lake Wales (near Naples) sits a whopping 205 feet above sea level.
This is also among the highest points of land in all of Florida.

Imagine the scramble stampede as panic mode masses converged on the precious few high points in Florida.
Hamburger Hill would be nothingburger hill by comparison.

Trying to drive out from south Florida through all the slow car chaos between you and high enough ground would be futile and likely end in a drowning death.

If I was in South Florida, I would either hire or heist a small plane and fly toward the Appalachian mountains, making an emergency landing on a rural town airfield, corn field or golf course.

If that didn't pan out, I would hire or steal a large fast fishing boat. If you could power out into the Gulf a few hours to the north west, the Florida peninsula would be barrier reef enough to make any spillover waves survivable in a seaworthy cabin cruiser.

A retreat by water is the option that panicked masses who are retreating from water would likely overlook.
Not saying that this would be a pleasure boating experience.

Something would go 'berserk in the Gulf of Mexico,' but not so postal berserk that it sinks a French submarine.

How are you going to survive 100ft plus waves if you’re out to sea in a small boat? Doesn’t seem logical.

Or are you saying get out to sea and ahead of things prior to the event?
