Warnings issued as Sudden Stratospheric Warming threatens Europe with big freeze
February 08, 2018
https://watchers.news/ This really is a brilliant site. It will break my heart if it is related to the mainstream media. What it doesn’t tell you is that: Sudden Stratospheric Warming is identical to the cause of the Coronal Mass Ejection of the sun. It is not possible to say which is the first to begin as it is all one continuum.
Another brilliant site with the limitation that volcanoes are not forecast with the best tools nor with the best people:
Gunung Agung volcano (Bali, Indonesia): new explosion this morning, ash column rising 1500 m above summit
The eruption of the volcano has not ended: Just few days after the official alert status of the volcano had been decreased from 4 (highest) to 3 on the Indonesian scale of 1-4, a sudden, moderately violent explosion occurred this morning.
The short-lived explosion began at 11:49 local time and produced a dense ash-loaded plume that rose quickly to approx. 1500 m above the volcano. It seems likely to have been a vulcanian-style explosion, caused by sudden release of accumulated gas pressure trapped inside the sticky magma in the upper conduit, and shows that even though the overall activity has been slowing down and the eruption is likely approaching its end, the volcano remains dangerous.
The resulting ash is easy to see and to follow but the water is invisible and will always remain invisible. The best tools to use to follow these things are the weather charts. And the best people, people like me and most diligent independent interest groups. Why?
Because we are not chained by educational grants to a particular research project. Instead we have Lots and Lots of These is Watch Ya gots:
Volcanoes Today, 13 Feb 2018: Fuego volcano, Popocatépetl, Dukono, Agung, Reventador, Turrialba, Mayon, Furnas
Furnas (Sao Miguel Island, Azores): An earthquake swarm has been going on since Monday (12 Feb 2018) in central Sao Miguel island.
The Volcano Observatory (Observatório Vulcanológico e Sismológico da Univ. dos Açores, CIVISA) recorded dozens of mostly small quakes at shallow depths between 1-15 km in an area about 6-7 km west of Furnas volcano, half way between the caldera lakes of Lagunas Fogo and do Congro. The largest were 6 earthquakes of magnitudes 3.0-3.6, some of which were felt by local inhabitants.

Mayon (Luzon Island, Philippines): The volcanic activity has continued with little changes, but shown a decreasing tendency. A recent gas measurement suggests a strong decrease in SO2 output from the volcano, which could suggest a beginning exhaustion of the magma supply.
On the other hand, GPS and tiltmeters continue to see inflation (swelling) of the volcanic edifice caused by internal magma pressure.

And that’s all that you can see, there are more under the sea to see.
Which is all very well, except:

Where in Britain, is it being discussed?
