YELLOWSTONE
Grand Prismatic Spring is one of Yellowstone National Park's many
hot springs and geysers fueled by underground thermal energy. A new study
has found that Yellowstone is rising faster than has ever been measured
before, due to an influx of magma several miles beneath the surface.

Yellowstone Is Rising on Swollen "Supervolcano" PDF Richard A. Lovett for National Geographic News November 8, 2007
Yellowstone Super Volcano Update By Dr. Bruce Cornet Geologist, Paleobotanist, and Palynologist 9-8-3 - If more steam vents appear, that means a continuous pathway for pressure release has been established to the magma chamber. If that happens, the pressure in the magma chamber will continue to drop until it reaches a critical stage when the superheated water within the magma explodes. When that happens the super-volcano will blow violently, blowing out a chunk of its cap-rock and sending millions of cubic feet of ash into the atmosphere in a Pompeii-like explosion, but 100,000 times worse.

Yellowstone reveals disturbing recent events. listen: Special Report mp3
As we mentioned in May, we traveled to Las Vegas and smell of sulphur was strong. - "When Yellowstone goes off again, and it will, it will be a disaster for the United States and eventually, for the whole world. We volcanologists believe it would all begin with the magma chamber becoming unstable. Observations would begin by seeing bigger earthquakes, greater uplifting as magma intrudes and gets nearer and nearer the surface. An earthquake may send a rupture through a brittle layer similar to breaking the lid off a pressure cooker. This would generate sheets of magma, which will perhaps rise up to 30, 40 or 50 kilometers sending gigantic amounts of debris into the atmosphere. Pyroclastic flows would cover the whole region, killing tens of thousands of people in the surrounding area.
