4. It's in Asia now (Edited) NOT
Edited on Sat Apr-17-10 07:56 AM by TexasProgresive
Edited to add- While it is not in Asia as I originally posted it will continue eastward. The problem in Asia is a backlog of flights caused by airspace closure in Europe.

The ash plume is likely to circle the globe. Whether there will be enough ash to interfere with air travel is unknown but get ready for some outstanding sunrises and sunsets and if there is enough a cooling of temperatures

5. It will NEVER get here because we do not share SOCIALISTS atmosphere with Europe.
Just ask any Teabagger. The United States has its own clean air, we do not share air with those pansy europeans.
