THE BIG BANG!
Mother Nature can be powerful.
We got a small taste of that power a
couple days ago with heavy rains and
a strong wind that caused flash flooding
ans well of some power outages. But if
you want to know just how powerful she
can be you've got to look back a few years
to this very date in 1883 the largest
explosiong ever heard on this planet took
place west of Java in Indonesia with the
peak eruption of the volcano on the island
of Krakatoa! The blast was heard 3,000
miles away! It sent rock and ash 50 miles
into the sky and created a tidal wave 120
feet high. To give you an even better idea,
the blast was 13,000 times stronger than
the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima!
It claimed between 36 and 40 thousand
lives! And, again, it happened on this date
in 1883. Never fool with Mother Nature!
She has more power than most of us could
ever imagine! Hope you're well and that all
your NEWS is good!
