July 1995 - Montserrat's Soufriere Hills volcano eruption

In July 1995, Montserrat's Soufriere Hills volcano, dormant throughout recorded history, rumbled to life and began an eruption which eventually buried the island's capital, Plymouth, in more than 12 metres (39 ft) of mud, destroyed its airport and docking facilities, and rendered the southern half of the island uninhabitable. Following the destruction of Plymouth, more than half of the population left the island due to the economic disruption and lack of housing. However, this ash venting does occasionally extend into the populated areas of the northern and western parts of the island.

How long ago was this documentary? It mentioned that the only means of transport was the ferry service as well as the helicopter service to and from Antigua. Montserrat has recently resumed airlift into the country, either in 2004 or 2005 when a new airport was constructed in the northern part of the island in which also known as the safe zone.

I was patrolling the earth as occupation during this eruption along with me being in my freshman year in college. The wave of the eruption carried me here to 2022 me arriving with a BAS in Psychology and a BSE in Business.🤔 A Hundredths of years? Psalms 121:1-2 the scripture used. Terrill TC!
