Yellowstone Volcano More Active In October

Luke 21:11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.

The Yellowstone volcano rumbled a little more in October than September.

Seismologists with the U.S. Geological Survey say there were a total of 98 earthquakes measured in October, 21 more than in September.  However, the scientists said the magnitude of the quakes was lower than the highest ones in the previous month.

The volcano’s alert level remains at “normal.”

The data used by the USGS comes from the University of Utah’s seismograph stations located throughout Yellowstone National Park.

The latest report says that ground deformation in the area is continuing on the same steady path of 5 centimeters per year.
