Mt adams is one of the less problamatic cascades volcaoes
@@irondarknessdarkness8900that what they said about Mt. St Helens in the 70s
@@elizabethwarman9028 well iv looked at the topo maps and the distances from stuff and mt afams is much farther upstream in a lot of cases that st helens is but its also an effuisve type volcano not a more explosive one like st helens.
These updates are great! I'm always ready for a newsflash about Iceland or Yellowstone or Mt. Adams or Hawaii. What I like most is that the news comes via a pro who knows science from hype and can be trusted to relay accurate information and phrase things so that everyone knows what is speculation and what is fact. Ph.D. training in science is a real plus.
The best compliment I can pay you is to subscribe. Your research and commentary is much appreciated. Greetings from Ontario Canada.
Mt. Adams just wants to make sure we don't forget it's there.
i never thought geology could be so interesting. i have to thank you Mr. Willsey
(and Mr. Zentner) for helping me become an armchair geologist, ha!
now i'm looking at all the rocks along the way to my tasks.
another wonderful gelogical place is the niagara river gorge downriver from niagara falls.
there is wonderful geologic features on both sides of the river. US & Canada.
i am fortunate to live near there. it still amazes me.
Love this news update for this community
Volcano Bingo Card! Ya gotta love it! Thanks for the straight-up summary!
A lot of love for Mt. Adams in the chat for its beauty, which I 100% agree with. I think people felt the same about Mt. Saint Helens before 1980.
I worked the Cascade Creek fire about a decade ago up around and on the lower flanks of Mt. Adams. Mt. Adams and the surrounding country are so beautiful.
And this after the Portland area and SW Washington state experience a sulphur smell. interesting. :D
It did smell a lot like a volcano, but we're also downwind of a lot of industrial plants that could have been the source.
"Today in Canada, there was an accidental release of Mercaptan, which is an additive used as an odorant in Natural Gas. This chemical has a sulfur-like smell to make natural gas easier to detect. The smell has drifted into parts of Whatcom County, including Bellingham and parts of north and east county. If you are smelling a sulfur-like smell, and you live in these areas, it is likely that this is the culprit.
@@Sunnbobb That's in the northwesternmost part of Washington state. Although there have been reports of odor in the affected area you mention, the odd odor being discussed here is in the southwest portion of the state and across the Columbia River in northern Oregon. It was noticed a week or so ago, and there was apparently a second incident yesterday.
Interesting information.
Thank you Prof Willsey 🙏
Love Mt Adams. Beautiful.
Thanks for keeping us in the loop
Oh great, I just moved to Washington! 😱Thanks for the update!!! Always enjoyable, no matter what!🙃
Thank you Shawn. Always interesting.
Used to live in the Yakima valley on the Res. I saw that mountain every day for nearly a year.
Thanks Shawn. We did a drive by this volcano on September 19th. It followed by a vacation looking at 12 volcanoes in the Cascade Range (Mt. Rainier down to Mt Mazama) I gained a new respect for Newberry and it's history as I was parked on the rim at Paulina Peak. Mt Adams is beautiful as well as Mt Jefferson.
Love Newberry! Camped at Paulina Lake this summer!
Thanks Shawn. Keeping an eye on our dynamic earth.
Thanks for the notice and commentary. Will be a topic in our upcoming CERT class, I bet!
Ironically your video popped up like 2 minutes after I got a notification on my phone from Fox 12 in Portland discussing this very same thing. There was a live interview from a geologist at CVO who basically said the exact same things you were saying about the earthquake activity under Mt Adams. It's clearly not an imminent threat at this point, but is a good justificataion for getting seismometers and tiltmeters out there; Mt Adams definitely needs more than just a single seismometer in the area. Ironically, the Goat Rocks area around Adams and St Helens is the focus of Nick Zentner's next A-Z series and he's currently also a team member on at least one of the two research groups who just won NSF grants to study the area; so if any action begins to increase around Mt Adams we're gonna have some of the best minds in the business on scene to interpret the data.
My wife, & I made a side trip to the St. Helen's area. I did a small hike, & my wife stayed in the car shes's got limited mobility. During my little hike she said she felt what she thought were earthquakes. I didn't feel a thing. Later we looked it up, & yes indeed there were 2 very small earthquakes at around the times she mentioned.
Thank you Shawn great update😊
Thanks! Nice to know. I am not close, but close enough in Washington!
Our Earth is amazing! Thanks for the information Professor Willsey! ❤
I knew you would have an update when I saw the notice about this earlier today, Shawn! Thanks!
I received the notice from VNS and was looking for your reaction. I find this very interesting and will be watching for further developments.
Hello from Kelowna, BC 🇨🇦
I am from White Salmon,if Adams were to wake up,my home is near Husum Falls,lava fields are established and it could be pretty interesting
Fun to know that the earth is "alive" down there... 😉 thanks!
Thx Shawn. I'm due east and about 100 miles away for Mt Adams. Be interesting to see if this shows up in what passes for the local news outlets in my area.
Thanks for all the hard work on these videos!
Of note also is that over the past 5 or 6 days people from Longview to Vancouver have been reporting a strange odor emanating from an unknown source, and naturally one would think first that one of the volcanoes in this area could be a prime suspect, if volcanic gases from the magma chamber feeding St Helens and Adams are making their way to the surface. However, there's no evidence of that being the source of the strange odor. I _live_ in Vancouver and I haven't noticed any strange odors here _yet._ But it would be intriguing to say the least, if CVO or others were able to detect volcanic gases seeping up through the ground surface in the area of either or both volcanoes while some of this action is taking place below Mt Adams.
That’s concerning. Wonder if you can get some sort of air reader so you are aware of any changes. Be safe!
I think Mt. Adams heard about Nick’s upcoming series! 😉 Thank you for the explanation, Professor! 🌋
Thanks for the heads up, Shawn! I saw the USGS information release on X and I appreciate you taking the time to explain it in more detail :)
being from the Yakima area i'm glad the Klickitat valley is between us and adams.
Mount Adam's is more remote than St Helen's. It's a wilderness area and about half the mountain is on the Yakima Reservation.
@@dennisc7589 St Helens had a lot of regional effects, even if the lives lost were in close proximity.
I read about this. I’m surprised it didn’t have more seismic equipment on it since it’s listed as a high threat volcano.
The threat risk assessment ratings mean what? Is there context included to give perspective to what each level means?
@@dhrracer it’s on the USGS WEBSITE
Support for
work of forestry, Audubon Society etc used USA,etc
Mt. Adams high threat? I thought it was a lower threat Cascade peak.
@@judieversaul4274 the USGS WEBSITE lists it as a high threat.
Loved climbing to the top of Pahto...maybe Pahto is just having some love rumblings for Loowit.
Thanks Shawn. Love your informative videos.
Thanks for this interesting 🧐 information! Wonderful video 👏👏
Volcano bingo card😂
Appreciate the briefing
Thank you for keeping us informed. So enjoy your online lectures, sorry I missed you last year but on one of my trips to Boise we can meet up.
Thanks for the update. I do like the information without the drama. Others would say, Mt Adams coming to life! Could cause the Cascades to erupt and take out most of North America with earthquakes and volcano's. Time to stock up on food and water. Run now!
`The alien base has been abandoned, so definitely something is up on Mt Adams!
Thanks!
I was hunting down there a few weeks ago. Beautiful area.
Thanks, as always.
Thanks.
My sister lives in Glenwood. You KNOW we're paying attention.
Thanks Shawn. We experienced a small quake here in Vancouver, BC, a few days ago - large enough to be felt over a considerable area here and on Vancouver Island. Perhaps the West Coast is becoming a little more active.
That was fun!! Thanks
Thank you!
Thank you!
I live very close to Adam's, but there is nothing we have felt so far.
Hmmm, ...and I want to get back up into the Washougal River watershed, a far ways distant between Mt Adams and Mt Hood ... but all protected from any blast, lahar, and pyroclastic flow perimeter, ... but an ash plume and dusting would be another issue.
Thanks
Thanks!
I guess Mt. Adams was twin volcanos many gazillion years ago, and it eventually morphed into 1 jumbo gigantic volcano.
0:40 Rainier is the tallest. Mt. Shasta is the largest by volume. Not by any means trying to make you suck eggs or anything, just dropping that in there.
@@princessofthecape2078 came here to say the same 👍🏻
Pahto is rumbling..(Yakama )
thank you for this quick notice:-) good news when no alert, right? greetings Crissy
It's always interesting to see my UK home town pop up in the US.
Newbury West Berkshire UK
Newbury Washington State on the Earthquake Map.
Also.
Newbury Massachusetts.
Cool we made the list.......sort of 😎🌋
Time to deploy some more instruments to measure depth and look for harmonics.
Very interesting. Thank you!
Also how mountains are supported by addition of support such as tree planting etc, forestry understands what can be done
How does that help? Volcanos do not stop for trees!
Um…..Adam’s has been having minor swarms like this for a couple years now. In fact most of the Cascades have been doing this. Just a couple years ago Adams had a large swarm and the news media was flipping out about it.
Thanks Shawn. Your mic seems a little scratchy in this video.
So a week ago SW wash had a smell? I wonder if Adams is off gassing lower?
Volcano Bingo! What a hoot! Do you have bingo cards for this game? I would love to play. Can you add a link to volcano Bingo cards so we can all join in?
What an idea volcano game!
Here’s hoping for some activity. Cascades have been slacking off and coasting on the infamy of Mt St Helens for way too long
Thank you
I would be more concerned about the quake swarm by the Seattle fault…
Iceland met office hasn't posted any updates for a week and a half. Is the lava chamber still just gradually refilling in preparation for the next round of excitement?
Adams is the 2nd largest volcano by volume in the Cascade range, behind Shasta. It didn't get that big by not erupting.
The Mt. St. Helens eruption tended to follow the rivers, Tuotle River to be precise. What flow path might one predict for Mt. Adams? IF. (Yes, there are lots of variables, but what if?)
My WAG: Klickitat River and Wind River draining south in to the Columbia River Gorge). Cispus River drainage to the north and west.
those earthquakes are going to create a lot of friction heat in that area
29 772 earthquakes I'm the last 30 days
Starting a turf war with Nick ?
I also heard that there 100 earthquakes at Hanford. Have you discussed that?
So possibly just tectonic in origen, maybe due to increased water table or just settling or something.
Good to get some advance notice of a volcano in the state. This will give emergency services time to complete the daunting task of finding a virgin around here to toss in as a sacrifice to the angry gods.
Will start keeping an eye on the neighbor 👁️.
Well! Glad we have you for these! Do you know whether the network that monitors plate/craton movement in the PNW measures fine enough to Notice any horizontal displacement?
Ty, videos
Every 10 years. The average on the cascadia fault zone. 45 years since Helens. We're about 3 or 4 behind average , so..... ???
👍
Being in Oklahoma I worry about the volcanoes in New Mexico is there anything in New Mexico with a threat
Yellowstone Volcano Observatory is in charge of monitoring in New Mexico and they have what volcanoes are active and what their threat categories are on their website. If you have any questions, the scietist-in-charge Dr. Mike Poland is really nice and very good about answering any questions you may have.
There's no A in bingo 😢 😔 😕
let us know when there is 600 quakes or 1000. those little ones under 3 happen all the time.
'Since the first people started living here in historic times' (paraphrasing your wording but that was the gist). But the Native American/First Nation peoples had been living in the area for millenia before!
Apart from that, thanks for another excellent video.
No strong evidence the First Americans were living in the area prior to the Last Glacial Maximum.
Ramtha the Enlightened One predicted Mt.Adams to be the next one to erupt about 10 years ago.
Interesting 🧐
Trust the Gospel
The mountain basically belongs to the Yakama tribe hence the low monitoring count.
My upgrade cycle is to buy top of the class and run it until there is something a lot better. Bought a RTX 2080 6 years ago for $699 and has the same performance of a 4060 and can still be sold for $165. That’s only $535 for 6 years of use.
Mount Adam’s has been asleep for a long time. ⛰️🌋
