What the fuck is this real? How the fuck is that going to get cleaned up? What happens if it rains? Dosent that shit turn acidic in water?

I can just imagine an EPA inspector having a stroke looking at this.

It actually turns water alkaline and rain would basically turn it into lye.

Wow...that is incredible. Looks like Northern MN after a bad blizzard.

Looks like a snowstorm hit.

Snow? That looks like sand.

Wow. They did not survive that lung clogging cement.

How are those buildings not crushed by the weight of all that ash?

@con77 if La Palma splits in two, you'll need to get out of Florida ASAP.

My brother lived in Washington State during Mt St. Helens eruption. This ash is way worse. As far as La Palma I dont think even a 1000 ft wave would make it to the west coast where I live. Unless giant ripples rebounded in the Gulf of Mexico. If it did create a Tsunami you'd only have a few hours to evacuate. Im a long way from high ground.

I think you may have six to seven hours to get out should a tsunami happen. There is speculation about how big the waves would be. Even so, the prospect of La Palma splitting and a tsunami is something to worry about - certainly more so than the covids. Notice how the media isn't fearmongering about this? The death toll would be horrendous if it happened.

Let's hope it doesn't happen. I'm sure all the DC and New York elite have helicopters on standby.

Covid is largely a political hoax used to seize control. I called the Aus embassy in Washington DC yesterday to criticize them and my calls go straight to some unidentified US office that tries to play word games and refuses to ID themselves! Fuck em! They gonna arrest me for asking legit questions?
