[🇮🇳] Indian Volcano explosion

[Swas]

@Vsdoc Something is appeningn i the Andmans, even Narkondam volcano has shown activity in recent times.

I have never seen Barren Island but had the honour of flying around Narkondam in 2007-08. I was the pilot of a mission conducted by geological survey of India. Narkondam had multiple minor explosions in 2005 & 2006 after the 2004 Tsunami. Narkondam is further east from barren island and well clear of th population.

Explosion in barren island can cause ash deposits in Andaman islands.

Thanks for that share.

Speaking of late 2004, and the tsunami.

I was a biker, between assignments, taking a sabbatical in my professional life at the time.

Riding my Bullet 500 across India. As you know, there was no Golden Quadrilateral then. Work was going on all over the place.

I was racing along the east coast (Chennai to Tadepalligudem to Bhubaneswar) on the same path that was to be destroyed a month(?!) later.

Lucky escape. The entire East Coast was destroyed.

Islands were swept away.
