Longwave infrared channel via #GOESWest of the #Tonga eruption.. one of the most incredible satellite animations I've ever seen. The relative warmth of the ash cloud atop the very cold tropospheric convective anvil. Waves upon waves. Simply incredible.

Yeah this reminded me of "the year without a summer" -- I think that was Mount Tambora. I have no idea where this ranks there but I'm betting this might cause some global effects (at the very least some wild sunrises / sunsets)
It’s certainly a significant eruption - all the data that is being presented at the moment is off the charts
