Thousands would die instantly, multiple states showered with lava: What will happen if Yellowstone 's supervolcano erupts after 600k-year slumber.
Eruption would devastate areas for hundreds of kilometers , with deadly 'pyroclastic flows' of high-speed lava, rock and hot gas.
Areas closer to the eruption would be covered in ash — including Utah ; Boise , Idaho , and Missoula , Montana .
Popular urban myth of Yellowstone super-eruption has come into vogue thanks to streaming 'docu-tainment' programs, like the Discovery+ film "Yellowstone Supervolcano: American Doomsday" in 2021 .
Eruption of Mount Tambora on the island of Sumbawa , in what is now the nation of Indonesia , in 1816 , created what was called 'the Year Without a Summer" in North America and Europe ' because it lowered global temperatures for a year .
Poland believes that people's fears around volcanoes focus on Yellowstone because of its iconic status as a US national park.
'The odds of an eruption this year are really kind of zero ,' he said.
'I hate the term supervolcano. It implies that these volcanoes only have that activity, when in fact it's more common that they have [less explosive] lava flows'.
