Volcano Eruption Caught On Webcam

Remember that movie Dante's Peak? It's one of my Sunday afternoon favourites. I would be okay if Pierce Brosnan was saving me from hot lava.

This just shows you how awesome Mother Nature is. And if you’re anything like me, you will watch this a good five times.

The Colima volcano in Mexico erupted yesterday morning, as it has been doing rather frequently for the past few weeks. The ash cloud climbed a good 13 000 feet into the sky, and there is no risk for people living nearby (yay!).

Imagine if Devil’s Peak occasionally spewed ash into the air and over Cape Town. The traffic would reach a whole new level of disaster.
