From what I've noticed every year, there must be a fairly large natural disaster in December after Mount Semeru exploded, now the sea is wavy high and the weather is very extreme, while vehicles can be carried away by the wind in the Natuna Sea, a tsunami may occur don't know when.

You need to quit making the volcano god angry. Then, maybe, Santa would bring you presents again.

@May2k8 I don't know if he could get snow for you but I'm sure some of the people in Canada would be happy to let you collect all the snow you want from their yards and roads.

@LadyDuck in Jakarta there are no volcanoes but if all volcanoes were active then Indonesia could sink

That's the wrath of nature. Nobody could control it or tame the raging bad weather rather than to be vigilant and stay safe.

There seems to be interference from humans as well like mining in the area near there

@Nakitakona What I can't understand is why people have built houses close to the mountain since 2018 in fact this is already predicted to erupt at any time.

@May2k8 Well, that's it. In some instances, progress isn't progress at all. It leads to disaster.

If a megatrust earthquake occurred in Indonesia, most of it was destroyed according to records in 1883 the tsunami split the island from base to tip
