The problem is complicated by the potential of a potent and potentially deadly mix of water and magma that could spew out gases and ballistic rocks that can have up to the weight of 8 Ford F150 pickups. These gases could be highly toxic and travel up to 45,000 feet in the air and cover hundreds of miles. Volcanologists are trying to the best of their abilities figure out the scope of the damage area that could happen and what action needs to be taken currently to address the problems already happening and future problems.
This could get real really fast apparently and there is growing evidence of a much larger eruption in the works.
