I will now apologize to my fellow tourists for the coming snowfall on Waikiki during the week of 10-2-15 to 10-9-15. I tend to bring snowfall wherever I go. Am on Oahu then.

After 3 Hurricanes and this news, the islands do not need anything more than, perhaps, more canned Spam.

Are you saying there's some sort of uncanned Spam epidemic?

Heh, stop making fun of the state food of Hawaii!

Seriously, I lived there for 4 years, and spam musubi is the best food on earth.

On the volcano once, awesome experience.

I believe if it erupts big, like big, that it could cause some regional or even global cooling.

Not until I leave.

To me the evidence seems to show that if there is God, then He is a Dick.

Bring on the snow; the volcano can pipe down and behave....

With my luck I'll bring a blizzard!

Volcanoes blow when the world sucks.

Any more updates on this?

Actually neither Yellowstone or Mauna Loa, I am going to say Lake Toba is in fact the largest active volcano on Earth. I am deeply sorry for all of the bruised egos who have posted on this thread. Toba is anything but dead and it is being monitored daily.
truth be told it wouldnt surprise me in the least if Toba blows big again, sometime in the next 200 years and i aim to live long enough to witness it . lmfao bring on human immortility

I would also have said Toba.

I believe we may have just detected a long tremor at MLOA on the live seismo spectro feed. Showing up at many stations on the volcano. Here is a spectro pic from my rig:

Note that the alert level is still at Yellow from the HVO:

I wrote to some contacts about this signature, and just got a reply.

They say discussion is continuing about its origin and significance, and that tremor is a possibility! They said they saw it and were still studying it. So we'll see. So obviously it is NOT a train, or they would have said so. That signature looks very close to what a train's signature does. But there ain't no train tracks. Once I saw that there weren't, I figured I better write to them. Cause yeah, that looks like tremor at either Mauna Loa or Mauna Kea- or somewhere in between.
