@PNS That was Mount St. Helens' major eruption of May 18, 1980.It was very bad, but Krakatoa's eruption of 1883, was much much worse.

@Logan_5 Makes me mad no one had the foresight to grab their phones to capture Krakatoa's moment.

@PNS Quoting Wikipedia, the eruption was equivalent to 200 megatons of TNT. About 13,000 times the nuclear yield of the Little Boy bomb (13 to 16 kt) dropped on Hiroshima, Japan.

@PNS My sister's home was near Yakima WA - too bad they never kept any of the ash to sell later. It was THICK at their house.

@kurt Yep. It lost roughly 1/4 of its mass in one go.
