Where can you take your family if Yellowstone begins erupting? The roads are melting in Yellowstone.?

I'm originally from that area (my family's ranch is about 20 minutes from Yellowstone) and Yellowstone has a history of Earthquakes, going up and down (its like when your chest goes up and down when you breath in and out) and when temperatures rise and fall.

When Yellowstone goes (I want to point out that no one knows how a super volcano acts because the last one happened about 75,000 years ago and Yellowstone erupted 640,000 years ago) there are lot of factors that happens the weather is a major factor (when a volcano erupts the wind from the Volcano can take it miles into the atmosphere and over the land for example when Mt Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD the people in Pompeii had only 10-20 minutes to prepare for it while the people in Herculean had 30-1 hour to prepare for the ash cloud) the Blackfoot tribe (who lives in the area) called Yellowstone "land of evil spirits." and tried to warn the white settlers from entering the area all together.

The one thing we learned from Volcanic ash is that DO NOT be in a building (when Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD what killed the most people in the towns of Pompeii and Herculean was the ash building up on the roofs of buildings over time it caused the roof to collapse burying people alive or killing people. Also in the USA we have 2 other super volcanoes Long Valley (its found in southern Cali) and Vales Galleria (this one is in New Mexico) the last time Long Valley erupted was during the Ice Age a group of animals (horses, Hippos, deer, antelope, etc.) all tried to escape the eruption by hiding in a cave but were all killed by breathing in the ash (volcanic ash have tiny crystals that can cause the liquid in your lungs become cement.)

Its amazing how people panic or worry over nothing.

The roads are not melting - there is a small area where a hotspot has melted part of the road - that happens in Yellowstone all the time, and is actually an attraction.

None of the scientists that study Yellowstone every day say that it will erupt anytime in the forseeable future.

If Yellowstone does eventually erupt, it won't matter where you are since most of the planet will be affected by the ash cloud.

But if you want to react 50 years early, then by all means move to Mexico or Hawaii or Australia.

Don't worry. There will be plenty of warning if Yellowstone begins to erupt. There will be many quakes of magnitude 5 or greater as magma moves toward the surface. Magmatic gas concentrations will increase in the groundwater, geysers, etc. The officials and scientists that constantly monitor Yellowstone will know way ahead of time that an eruption is impending.

Even then the eruption is not likely to be huge. It could turn into a huge eruption, but smaller ones will occur first.

You will have plenty of time to pack and move to safety. Personally I would head mostly south and a bit west. L.A. or San Diego perhaps. Maybe get west of the Sierra Nevada.

Seriously, though, you know it's not likely to erupt within your lifetime?

By the way, if you do encounter a few inches of volcanic ash, don't wipe them off the car. Volcanic ash is rock and if you wipe it off you will need to replace your glass and paint. Use a hose and wash it off.

Um nowhere there wouldn't be time to get out of Wyoming.... And it will affect the entire world in one way or another so we are all ******

So that is why we have become so friendly to illegal aliens.

if you watch the weather, the wind from the north pole always moves east. so i wouldnt go east of the united states because ash will be carried that way. also ash from mount saint helens reached the midwest so no that wouldnt be far enough. we dont exactly know how far ash will be carried from a "mega volcano" but i think its safe to say itle be carried into europe.

Nowhere will be safe. The dust and ash will block out the sunlight, killing plant life. This will destroy the food chain and reduce the amount of oxygen in the air. In other words, if that sucker goes off, you're dead meat, no matter where you happen to be!

Lol. Nowhere.

You wouldn't have time to get to a safe distance. When Jellystone blows, there's not much of the entire USA that would be completely safe.

If you want to beat the mega volcano, you have to plan in advance.

if the supervolcanoe would erupt theres nowhere on the surface of the world you can hide. it will create a dust cloud that will cover, almost the earth and block out the sun.
