Is Yellowstone About To Blow?
''There Have Been 296 Earthquakes Near The Yellowstone Supervolcano Within The Last 7 Days''
You may recall my comments about recent events on the Sun and sarcastically blamed them on the Presidency of Donald Trump.
[Well if it blows that will confirm my sarcasm!]
The Sun has been very active since about two weeks ago:
Yellowstone, however, should not be seen in isolation to other volatile seismic regions of the world.
If all are examined simultaneously and all are showing similar trends, then this may be highly significant
What is happening at Yellowstone is unusual.
The size of the disturbance on the Sun is also highly unusual (see the above references.)
An analysis or positive correlation can be more accurate if other seismic events of similar profile are concurrent.
Two areas to watch is Alamagan Island (the Mariana Trench off the East Coast of the Philippines) and the most volcanically active regions of Sumatra (Indonesia)
If you examine the above cross-section you will note note that it is where two major tectonic plates 'meet' and 'roll over' each other.
Concurrent seismic events at Yellowstone, Alamagan Island (plus other Northern Mariana's Islands) and Sumatra should not be seen in isolation.
To put it in a nutshell, these are some of the most geologically active regions in the world and any concurrent (simultaneous – within 48 hours to 5 days of each other) should be regarded as a 'litmus' warning for boats, ships and aircraft.
Yellowstone is actively monitored – and so are the other regions – so ample warnings should be available in the event of a major issue.
[I was part of a Tsunami Evaluation Coalition analysis in 2006 and (thankfully) new early-warning systems have been put in place since that time to minimize both loss of life and provide people living in low coastal areas at least some time to get to higher grounds in the event of such disturbances triggering tsunamis.

Hawaii is of course also an area to be monitoring for unusually high levels of activity:
A quickie guide for the non-technical:🌌
every part of the earth contains unique compositions of soil.
Some for example might have high concentrations of limestone. This might suggest formation during the Paleozoic era where such were prevalent happenings. A more detailed analysis https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=BLgPAAAAIAAJ&pg=RA1-PA32&lpg=RA1-PA32&dq=chemical++composition+of+limestone+slopes&source=bl&ots=h-ER7CTJWT&sig=EwdtRalrpKDKbcAkyoAqHDogd1w&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjqx5bdyM7UAhXNmLQKHW27AxMQ6AEIOTAD#v=onepage&q=chemical%20%20composition%20of%20limestone%20slopes&f=false
will give you sufficient data to be able to accurately pinpoint the part of the earth the original soil came from. [The presence of limestone in high concentrations in soil can also be excellent for the growing of olives!]
If, for example, you find soil similar to the above on top of other layers of different chemically composed layers and a more detailed analysis picks up 'trace' (radioactive) elements or elements 'alien' to the general area, possibilities for the presence of this anomaly is that it has been 'deposited' there by a meteorite or by a volcano erupting somewhere else in the region or in the world, by synthetic alteration or other intervention process. 😍
