Eruption Photos Taken from Amboy, Washington

$The Mount St. Helens eruption of 1980 is one of the most well-known and destructive volcanic eruptions in modern history. Located in Washington State, USA, this explosive event had far-reaching consequences, from property damage to lasting ecological impacts. The dramatic nature of the eruption was captured on camera and has been studied by experts ever since. It serves as an important reminder that the power of nature should not be underestimated. \n\nOn May 18th, 1980, the Mount St. Helens volcano in Washington State erupted with devastating force. With a 5.1 magnitude earthquake, 550 million tons of ash and debris were blasted 20 miles into the air and spread across 11 states. The eruption left 57 people dead and caused about $3 billion dollars worth of damage to property. The eruption is thought to be one of the most destructive volcanic eruptions in modern history.\n\nThe eruption was caused by a combination of tectonic activity and pressure inside the volcano. This pressure had built up over several months before the eruption.The resulting blast is said to have been equal to 24 megatons of TNT or 400 times larger than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima during World War II.$
