Yes, we all hate Sarah Palin, and Alaskans are generally a breed apart, but you can see Redoubt from my Aunts place (I know, I’ve been there), and there will be far too many people in far too much trouble when it finally blows for me to find this funny.
Alaska has one of the most amazing and unique environments on the planet. Unlike northern Canada, which got scrapped clean of its top soil during that last period of glaciation, Alaska was largely left alone – an island surrounded by ice sheets.
It’s truly a magic place, and if you haven’t been there, you should go. Especially in the Summer when the sun never sets and the critters (like moose) are everywhere.
Case in point: Mt. Redoubt, a 10,197-foot active volcano 103 miles west of Anchorage. Scientists at the US Geological Survey’s Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) are keeping close tabs on the mountain. They say an eruption may be imminent.
(You can monitor the mountain too, weather permitting. Government scientists have set up webcams at two locations, here and here.)
Last fall, it showed signs that it may be waking up after a decade’s slumber. Since Jan. 23, that activity has been rising — largely marked by an increase in tremors recorded by seismic sensors near the summit.
Ahhh, but will Putin be able to see it?
Undoubtedly. In Alaska the cold war has never ended. I bet Putin is secretly supporting magma suicide bombers.
she was waiting for a “sign”…l doubt this was what she had in mind.
she’s much more interested in $$$ signs.
