volcanic activity

so did everyone see the report from the philippne volcano folks "philvolcs" of the 6.6 quake at masbate yesterday? four volcanos put on level one alert including our kanlaon?

it is of particular interest to me as my asawa and i went to redrock above valencia to swim monday and we both noted the increased steam venting taking place on the way, espcially the steam vent field just short of red rock. there were also two smaller rock slides on the road that required some judicious navagation to avoid the larger ones.

this was before the quake occured. just a heads up

 

With todays technology the lights don't even stay on all the time.
If the volcano decides to erupt i think the smoke and heat will be the first warnings

 

well i agree with that. i thought the observation we made before we ever heard about the quake and before it occured, was that there was a whole lot more steam coming out of the ground up there in the mountains and rock slides happen but are always noteworthy. if you look up at the surrounding mountains while basking at red rock you can see some really big stuff that is perched precariously. i have actually formed a plan on where to hid if a quake comes while we are basting. i went to bohol after the quake there and was really shocked to see the damage. i would imagine a lot of it is still there. i know kanlaon has made a little mess up there north of us several times in recent years. never take stuff for granted!!

 

we were up there today and it was much more calm, supporting your comments. still, i always go to defcon two when i am up there

 

And I think you will go to defecation two, or more, if it goes off!
