The possible eruption (someday) of the super-volcano in Yellowstone is almost laughable for those of us that live here. Sure, it could happen someday, but in our lifetime? Probably not. But, if you've ever wondered what that event might look like, there's a new computer simulation of this terrifying event.
If you think Wyoming is a looker from the ground, you should see us from space. Recent pics show our state from miles above the earth and include viewpoints we've never seen of last year's wildfires.
Yellowstone National Park has been shaking more than usual today. As of this writing, there have been 49 measurable earthquakes just south of Yellowstone Lake.
If you thought the Yellowstone super-volcano might be the next tragic event of 2020, it looks like you're gonna have to come up with a new theory. The USGS just shared that earthquakes in the region were way down in July from previous months.
It wasn't a super shaker, but there was a significant earthquake in the Tetons today that many reported feeling. The USGS has confirmed this quake did happen.
It's not breaking news (no earthquake pun intended) that Yellowstone has a lot of earthquakes. But, even by the normal high standards, the USGS has confirmed there were a lot of earthquakes near the park in May alone.
The shaking has continued in Salt Lake City since the major earthquake on March 18. There are reports they've had over 600 quakes in the last two weeks alone.
