Eruptions
Guy F. Beebe
There is a volcanic eruption going off in Russia, on the Kamchatka Peninsula. Shooting ash up to 65,000 feet? Makes this at LEAST a VE 5, which is going to have global impact on weather for at least a year. I think this one falls between Mount Saint Helens and Mount Pinatubo's eruptions. Both impacted climate, globally, for at least a year, and Pinatubo arguably made the next three years cooler.

I was a bit off, going off of memory, 20km high plumes start with VE5, but VE6 is in that range as well. The VE scale is based not JUST on plume height, but cubic kilometers of ejecta.
Also, I should say, "this one falls between Mount Saint Helens and Mount Pinatubo's eruptions."...s
Andrew Gray adds:
CNN / MSNBC - Evil Russian plot to stifle US satellite spying efforts in Ukraine and planned NATO air exercises scheduled shortly.....
Tim adds:
Yes, EEZ Russian plot to Keel American Capitalist dogs and Moose and Squirrel.
Wonder if this doesn't tie in with the unseasonably cold weather we've been getting the last few days?

No. It's too early for that volcano to be affecting weather. But I suspect you are correct that it will. Related information is that San Diego is having an unusually cloudy and cool April, which is caused by extremely and record cold sea surface temperatures.

This WILL put out a helluva lot of CO2 -- not that it really will affect the climate and its "change" (sorry, John Kerry and Co.). Need I elucidate?

I thought all that cool sea temperatures were a thing o the past Bill!

That's true, Tim, I forgot about that. But its effect will be the reverse of what the Gang Green is always yammering about.

Exactly Dana. Volcanic eruptions are often accompanied by a year or two of cooler weather. NOT warmer.
They got all fussy about particulates being released in industrial emissions back in the '70's, which was at the root of the "global coo.ling" scare. So we cleaned them all up and they went straight into global warming.
Nothing satisfies them except the dismantling of our civilization.
