(Video) Yellowstone Caldera Rises Ten Inches. Supervolcano is alive! | Prophecy

Underneath Yellowstone National Park lies a super volcano with a magma chamber of approximately 25,000km of magma. What is not known, is how much of it is eruptible magma. The ground has been swelling in the northwest corner of Wyoming at Yellowstone National Park, and in January 2013, scientists have reported that the grounds have raised as high as ten inches in some areas of Yellowstone. Namely, The Yellowstone Caldera, or the Yellowstone Super Volcano, which is an underground magma chamber that measures about 34 miles (55 km) by 45 miles (72 km), or 1,530 square miles, and the beast has recently started to waken from it’s 600,000 year sleep.
