Current Events QTR 2 week 2: New volcanic eruptions sends Indonesians fleeing.

source: http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/asiapcf/10/30/indonesia.volcano/index.html
  In Jakarta Indonesia Mount Merapi erupted again on Saturday after it had already done on Tuesday.
You could feel the volcano from 7 miles away! In the main city of Yogakyarta ash clouds covered the skys. The people there had to where gas masks or cover their faces. On Friday a huge blast sent lava and ash clouds into the sky! Residents where evacuated down the mountain to safer ground after all the eruptions Friday. Mount Merapi is one of Indonesias most active volcanos.
  I thought this was tragic. I feel bad for all the people who had suffered in this disaster. I think people need to move away from that area. Its not safe to live near volcanos. I hope that the people living there can know before a volcano erupts so that they can evacuat before hand.
