Nanuq Posted March 28, 2009 Author Report Posted March 28, 2009 Well the bloody thing has been erupting 3 and 4 times every day, shooting ash 65,000 feet into the air. We got some ash fall today and the things is STILL rumbling! Now they're talking about an "ice plug" in the top vent... can you imagine it blasting that thing 65,000 feet into the air toward my house?! Before During... "after" still to come
Demsey Posted March 28, 2009 Report Posted March 28, 2009 "ice plug" in the top vent................blasting that thing 65,000 feet into the air toward my house QUICK! PM 'Omni' ! Never one to pass up a Martini of Opportunity. Strategically placed shakers about town, Sapphire Gin at the ready, raining ice cubes from the heavens, 'shaken and/or stirred' included. Sounds like another winner Alaskan Festival in the making!
Nanuq Posted March 29, 2009 Author Report Posted March 29, 2009 I like it! Shaken AND stirred... We've got ash raining down all around us now, it's gritty nasty stuff. I can taste it in my teeth and it's in my eyes. But they're also forecasting snow tonight so that ought to cover it up a little. Avalanches covering the highways, record snowfalls, volcanoes blowing off... it's just another winter in Alaska!
cornerstone Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 It's absolutely phenomenal. Plus, on a lighter note, it's a great excuse to walk around town with a pillow strapped to your head.
KB Posted March 29, 2009 Report Posted March 29, 2009 He doesn't need a pillow CS...'es got 'is tin foil 'at on Ken
docblackrock Posted March 31, 2009 Report Posted March 31, 2009 Bob, you still alive there? Guess you're busy eh....
Guest carlsbadrolex Posted April 1, 2009 Report Posted April 1, 2009 Im sure your governor has everything under control... Now that she is infamous, its much easier for her to get the support of Washington if she needs it!
