Australia prepare for more freezing weather, Late Monday there will be a cold front brought up from Antartica by a forming Extratropical Cyclone, Windchill will be also a factor with some area experiencing wind compariable to a Severe Tropical Storm.

Heavy Rain, Sleet, or Snow may be present.

Western Australia & South Australia will be affected Monday, and Late Tuesday or Early Wednesday this may start impacting Victoria, New South Wales, and Southern Queensland.

It may further intensify even if it become occluded before approaching the Tasman Sea as the Sea has kept its warmth therefore it may rejuvenate, or even start taking on some Tropical Characteristics, but the SSTs are too cold, and it is really cold, cold core cyclone which should prevent a complete Tropical Transition, Especially be that far South it will experience too much windshear anyway.

I think I shall start doing my Global Tropical Cyclone Updates here as it gives me more characters to convey the information.

Guess what⸮ You can make a movie that depicts a supereruption in a realistic manner and still make an enjoyable movie.

Firstly unless your movie is about a Flood Basalt (FB), Lava is unlikely to be present, FBs only tend to occur after an impactor or when a mantle plume reaches the surface. They're unlikely to erupt from known supervolcanoes.

Secondly most supervolcanoes have multiple magma chamber, Yellowstone has two large ones, and countless smaller ones, the largest chamber is unlikely to lead to a supereruption as it is very fluid basaltic melt, if it does make it to the surface it'd just cause lava flows and would be prolly about the same magnitude as the Laki Fission Fountain of Fire event in Iceland a few centuries back.

The smaller large chamber is what can cause a supereruption, it is viscose rhyolitic partial melt it can trap the gasses allowing for more explosive eruptions, but Yellowstone has erupted more times in the last 2.1my than people cite, in those 2.1my only 2 or 3 VEI 8 eruption occured (2 or 3 is because one of those eruptions may have been smaller than previously thought), most of the eruptions have been VEI 4 - 7.

Campii Flegrei in Italy can't be considered a Supervolcano as it has never had a supereruption, yes it is a Caldera, but so is the Mount Tambora Volcanic Complex, and Anak Krakatau Complex which were VEI 7 & VEI 6 respectivily, Campii Flegrei's largest eruption was ~37kya which ejected ~300km^3 puting it in the weaker half of VEI 7, it also had a smaller eruption in the middle ages. While it maybe possible for it to generate a VEI 8 it can't be considered a Supervolcano until it does, though that be said Campii Flegrei if it repeated its largest eruption today it would fuck Europe royally, and create a couple years of Volcanic Winter but wouldn't be comparable to Taupo, Toba, or Yellowstone which largest eruptions in recent time were ~1000, ~2000, ~3500km^3 respectivily.

My fave thing about the replacement for Jurassic Park Operation Genesis which is Jurassic World Evolution is they've added Tropical Cyclones as a weather event which is great not just because Tropical Cyclones are cool, but cannonically Jurassic Park & Jurassic World were built on Isla Nublar which in the first film the events in which Neddry was in a rush for was to get off the Island before a Tropical Storm hit the island, and Isla Sorna Site B was abandoned because of a Significant Hurricane (Category 3 or higher).

Site C though was never covered in the films but I believe it too was destroyed by a Hurricane so we Know the 5 Deaths (the name of the 5 Islands is known as the 5 deaths) are in a Tropical Cyclone Prone Area not just from cannonical events of the films but also when the films introduce both Nublar, and Sorna they put distance to Peuto Rico (excuse my spelling I can never remember how to spell it).

Continental Crust is actually growing in quantity overtime while Oceanic crust is slowly becoming less common.

Firstly Oceanic Crust is usually Mafic, maybe Ultramafic rock which is dense basalt which sinks further into the mantle, and Continental crust is Granitic and Dioritic which is formed by felsic Rhyolitic, and Andesitic magmas (Granite, & Diorite are plutonic rock of this magma, while the extrusive type is Rhyolite, & Andesite, both can also make Obsidian glass) which is much lighter.

The Mantle is actually a solid because the pressure keeps rock from liquifying however as basaltic oceanic crust subducts the lighter minerals in the basalt can melt due to lower melting points (also water may reduce the melting point further) this leads to partial melting with the lighter silica, aluminium kinds of minerals being separated, the old ocean crust will likely stay solid in the mantle unless it is depressurised by being pushed to the surface, but the felsic partial melt will create andesitic magma that rises to create new continental crust, Japan is a good example of this.

If the partial melt is more restricted in composition you get Rhyolitic Magma, which is much more viscose which leads to granitic plutons (which are called craton if they seeded the continent formation), due to the nature of this magma the volcanoes they form don't erupt very often and when they do they do so very explosively so VEI6 and above.

Examples of Rhyolitic Volcanoes: Campi Fleigrei, Lake Taupo, Lake Toba, Lake Ilepango, Anak Krakatau, and Yellowstone (Yellowstone actually has multiple magma chambers, a deeper basaltic chamber due to intrusion of mantle rock, and rhyolitic chamber close to the surface, this means Red eruptions are posible, maybe more likely as there is more basalt, but grey eruptions can come from the rhyolite melt)

Bonus Fact: The Yellowstone hotspot actual started life as a type of supereruption called a flood basalt, which is non-explosive but just as dangerous.

I appologise for the long toot to the local timeline, I forgot to change it to unlisted before post.

Cyclone FAQ:

What is a Cyclone?
An area of low pressure that is at least bellow 1010hPa.

What are the types of Cyclone?
Synoptic Cyclones are Extratropical, Subtropical, or Tropical, however on smaller scales mesocyclones, and Tornadoes.

What is the difference between the Synoptic Cyclones?
Tropical Cyclones are warm core, Symetrical non-frontal cyclones that occur over warm 26.5+ºC.
Extratropical are cold core, asymetrical, frontal lows.
Subtropical (aka hybrid) is asymetrical, non-frontal, warm core cyclone which has the characteristics of both Tropical & Extratropical, but can form at cooler Sea Surface Temperature of ~24ºC.

Cyclone, Hurricane, Typhoon, are they the same?
Yes, Tropical Cyclone is the generic term, in many places a Tropical Cyclone is called a Tropical Storm when it has greater than 34kt (63kph) winds sustained, and a Hurricane or Typhoon when it exceeds 64kts (119kph), but places like Australia & India just call them Cyclones, or Severe Cyclones for Tropical Storm, & Hurricane Intensity Respectively.

Why are Subtropical Cyclone sometimes call Hybrid Cyclones?
They have characteristics of both Tropical and Extratropical. They tend to form from occluded Extratropical Cyclone that moves over warm water leading to a partial transition where it takes on some characteristics of a Tropical Cyclone, the Reverse is unlikely as post-tropical transition often continues to completion but once they've transitioned to an Extratropical they may take back some Tropical Characteristics if they move back over warm waters, but if the waters are greater than 26.5ºC they will likely complete Tropical Transition thus becoming Tropical again.

The reason so many deities are Vampyric in nature has nothing to do with the personality of that deity.

Deities sometimes called Arch Angels when the inhabit a physical body there is a level of soul mingling with the soul originally inherent to the body they have taken on, Vampyre 101 a Vampyre is born when Angelic/Daemonic essence is introduced into the soul of a human or the reverse.

A Prima Strigoi/Strigoaica is what you get when a deity takes a physical form due to it taking up the soul of the human they inhabit. It is often easier to make new Vampyric souls by mixing vampyric elements of the soul into a human using Thaumaturgical Alchemy this is called the Witches Embrace, The Vampyres Bite, or in some circles the Middle Pillar, it doesn't contain any biting but may contain blood as a tool of connecting souls. Since the easier Middle Pillar ritual requires a Vampyre to mix some of their soul with the human you often find spread out you get less of the vampyric nature.

There is a form of the Witches Embrace that doesn't require a Vampyre, but is much harder to perform it take the absolute merging of the Tutelary Spirits accompaning the Human into the Humans Soul, and the Result approaches Prima Strigoi/Strigoaica but falls just short.

They actually got the sound somewhat accurately, Tornadoes often sound train like or like a jet engine depending on the intensity. EF 4 and 5 are more likely to sound like a jet engine close up, while I've never personalry experienced that I have almost driven into a Rainwrapped tornado which was prolly about EF1, EF2.

Throwing lit matches inside, prolly not the smartest idea out there.
