Another 'large eruption' detected at Tonga volcano
2022-01-18

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Another "large eruption" has been detected at the Tonga volcano, a Darwin-based monitoring station said Monday, two days after a massive eruption triggered tsunami waves around the Pacific.

The latest eruption was detected at 2210 GMT Sunday, according to an alert by the Darwin Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre also said it had detected large waves in the area: "This might be from another explosion of Tonga volcano. There are no known earthquakes of significant size to generate this wave."

#9  volcanos affect the weather/climate most when they throw sulfur compounds into the stratosphere

latest estimate I saw was that the Tongo event produced less than 10% of this as Pinatubo in 1991

#8  Historically, volcanic eruptions (AKA Gaia farts) spew particulates that result in measurable cooling for a couple years.

#5  How much carbon ash, CO2, etc. have been introduced to the atmosphere by this one volcano? = X years of economic sabotage by Climate Change hysteria?

#4  A Musk internet opportunity:

Communications with the island nation are limited because the single underwater fiber-optic cable that connects Tonga to the rest of the world was likely severed in the eruption.

Despite huge volcano blast, Tonga avoids widespread disaster

He will, of course, need to be wary of any ash holes.
