As you are probably aware
Alaska has been experiencing a large amount of earthquakes recently. What you
may not be aware of is that some scientists believe that Earthquakes in Alaska
can cause events at Yellowstone. Here is the data.
Since November 1, 2018 Alaska
has had over 1500 earthquakes of M2.5+ with the biggest being a M7.0 on
11/30/18, which was part of the 188
day large earthquake cycle.
That averages out to about 20 per day. In comparison last year during the same period there were 563 earthquakes of M2.5+. That averages out to about 8 per day.
That averages out to about 20 per day. In comparison last year during the same period there were 563 earthquakes of M2.5+. That averages out to about 8 per day.
So it is easy to see that the
number of earthquakes in Alaska has increased by about 300% in the same period
from a year ago. Thus currently Alaska is experiencing a large uptick in
Earthquakes.
Now can this uptick in
Earthquakes cause events at Yellowstone. First let’s examine what the
scientists say about the connection between Alaska earthquakes and Yellowstone.
Date: June 1, 2004
Source: University Of Utah
Summary:
A powerful earthquake that rocked Alaska
in 2002 not only triggered small earthquakes almost 2,000 miles away at
Wyoming's Yellowstone National Park – as was reported at the time – but also
changed the timing and behavior of some of Yellowstone's geysers and hot
springs, a new study says. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2004/05/040527235046.htm
Like some other large earthquakes, the Denali Fault quake triggered small shocks as far as 2,000 miles away, mainly in volcanic areas. Yellowstone National Park had the most energetic swarm of triggered earthquakes. https://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/old.2003/fs014-03/
So it is easy to see that there is an increase in Earthquakes in Alaska, and earthquake activity in Alaska can cause events at Yellowstone. Now the question is; could a large earthquake in Alaska, especially on the Denali fault, cause a volcanic eruption and or steam explosion at Yellowstone.
I believe that the data suggests that as a possibility. That prospect also holds true for big earthquakes near Yellowstone and has been theorized as a possibility by one scientist.
Nevertheless, a big quake near Yellowstone with its surface waves aimed the right way conceivably might "cause large hydrothermal eruptions," says Smith. "I would hypothesize that is certainly possible."

Will the uptick in earthquakes in Alaska lead to a big one on the Denali fault, which in turn will cause an event at Yellowstone? Only God knows the answer. But in light of the fact that Yellowstone is strike zone 2 on the USA Batman map overlay I do expect that one day Yellowstone will erupt.
In fact an eruption is overdue. Scientist say that Yellowstone has erupted 3 times in the past.
The supervolcano, located in Yellowstone National Park, has erupted three times in history – 2.1 million years ago, 1.2 million years ago and 640,000 years ago.
Of course as students of the Bible we know that the world is not billions or even millions of years old but about 6000 years old. And let’s assume that the eruptions began at the flood event, which was about 4000 years ago.
That means that there have been 3 eruptions in the last 4000 years, which averages out to about one every 1300 years. Thus if we have not had one since the year 700, then I would say that we are due.
Not only do I believe that a Yellowstone eruption is possible from natural means but also from manmade means.
What if a terrorist rogue nation wanted to destroy the United States, how could they do it? In other words what is the greatest threat we face from rogue nations?
Some believe an EMP attack would be devastating to our country and thus is one of the top threats we face. I agree and believe that everyone should be prepared to live without electricity for extended periods of time. Don’t forget a solar storm/flare could do the same.
Some believe a Yellowstone terrorist attack causing the supervolcano to erupt would be far worse than an EMP. As most of you are aware a Yellowstone super volcano eruption would instantly kill millions of people, decimate about 25% of the land of the United States, destroy crops, and possibly throw the world into a volcanic winter.
Unfortunately I do believe that evil forces aligned with satan will one day attempt to set Yellowstone off, of which I will explain more in detail later in this post. But assuming a Yellowstone eruption is planned for the future how might evil forces accomplish this?
How
Could an enemy nation cause Yellowstone to erupt? Some believe that it can be done by HAARP.
"Others [terrorists] are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves... So there are plenty of ingenious minds out there that are at work finding ways in which they can wreak terror upon other nations...It's real, and that's the reason why we have to intensify our [counter terrorism] efforts." (Secretary of Defense William Cohen at an April 1997 counter terrorism conference sponsored by former Senator Sam Nunn. Quoted from DoD News Briefing, Secretary of Defense William S. Cohen, Q&A at the Conference on Terrorism, Weapons of Mass Destruction, and U.S. Strategy, University of Georgia, Athens, Apr. 28, 1997.)
Others believe terrorists could cause Yellowstone to erupt via a nuclear explosion.
Dr Joseph Zimmerman, head of the Washington DC-based US Counter-Terrorism Group, aassesses terrorists have nuking Yellowstone in mind. Said Dr Zimmerman (2004) that terrorists could use natural disasters as “terrorist weapons”. In his view the “black wind of death” described by Al Qaeda in a claim of responsibility released after the Madrid bombings (2004) refers to the eruption of the “super volcano” at Yellowstone.
Dr Zimmerman then went into how terrorists might cause a super-eruption at Yellowstone. “As I pointed out in a recently published document [2003] terrorists could easily infiltrate the park with a nuclear device enclosed in a sealed drum.” Dr Zimmerman also indicated a good location: underneath Lake Yellowstone. The explosion “would rupture the magma chamber underneath Yellowstone”, so “the entire Yellowstone area would first implode and then explode in a massive eruption”. The terrorist aim being, according to the counter terrorism chief, that it “would kill millions of Americans and destroy the agricultural capacity of the United States”. http://www.supereruption-defence.com/yellowstone_supereruption.pdf
So according to the information above, if it is accurate, terrorists or enemy nations could set off an eruption at Yellowstone, not to mention that satan may have the power himself to unleash these forces—think about the tornado that God allowed satan to bring against Job’s family.
Thus I see the eruption of the Yellowstone caldera as one of the greatest threats to this nation. Who might do such a thing to the USA?
Who… You can read the answer here.
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36

Do you know what will happen in the end times and how to prepare for them? I wrote a book to help you. It is entitled The Coming Epiphany and will explain to you, in an easy to understand format what you need to know about the end times.

There are always aftershocks from large earthquakes, and since the 7.0 on November 30th we've experience nearly 6500 aftershocks from 1.0 and up. I'm not sure where you got your facts about the number of earthquakes Alaska has in a year, but I guarantee you it is way more than 563 in a year. According to the Alaska Earthquake Center "the statewide grand total for all earthquakes in 2017 is at 51,612." That is nothing new. The amount of aftershocks after the 7.0 is new, but not unexpected. So, if the amount of earthquakes in Alaska has increased it's because of the aftershocks from the big one. We do sit on the Ring of Fire and there are earthquakes all the time. I highly doubt there will be a big one on the Denali Fault any time soon as we just had the 7.0 down here on the Castle Mountain fault line. Of course, I could be wrong. But I would be looking more to the San Andreas and Cascadia fault lines for the next big one to happen.
ReplyDeleteThe AK earthquake data was for 11/1/18 to 1/10/19 for M2.5+ there were over 1500 in that period this year. Last year 11/1/17 to 1/10/18 M2.5+ there were about 500. 3 times as many M2.5+ this year than last in the same period.
DeleteAny big quakes close to Yellowstone could affect it, especially Cascadia.
BTW; Monday my dog was acting strange, hiding under a bed, shaking. I said she might be sensing there will be an earthquake. Last night a 4.7 hit off the coast of MD--not too far from us.
