What is going to happen to the cloud that is hovering over Europe?

I mean.When the volcano stops making the dust.Where will this dust go?

Will it just circle the planet to infinity?

Or is it gonna go into space?

Or simply disappear?



And when will it stop erupting and how long will it take for the cloud to clear?

Will it clear before summer?What is going to happen to the cloud that is hovering over Europe?
Even the experts don't know when it will stop erupting. Some volcanoes erupt a little every few years. The ones that give a big blast like this one settle down, after a few days or weeks.Most of the damage is done in the first day or so, when the earth (and this case, also the ice) that was above the volcano gets blasted up into space by the force of the first eruption.



Close by, in Iceland, where the ash has fallen many inches deep, crops will die from being covered, and animals that try to eat them may get sick. Further away, the cloud will circle the earth many times, thinning and getting lower each time. Ash fall will not much affect crops, but the dust cover can stop enough sunlight getting through, so some crops might take longer to ripen.



For many months, there will be brilliant red sunsets as the particles catch on the dust; this effect will slowly circle the globe.



The immediate danger to aircraft will clear in a few days. The ash will thin out and fall to earth (and into the oceans) slowly over the next year. The effect on sunlight won't make it dark anywhere, just reduce the amount of ultraviolet light that comes though.
It will last as long as it lasts. It will not begin to really dissipate until the volcano in Iceland 'settles down.'



It likely will not cause 'global cooling' or ruin any crops leading in turn to starvation. Mt. St. Helens in the state of Washington (U.S.A.) killed a bunch of trees and fish and a few people, but its main effect was to turn day into night in some parts of the Northwest, mostly downwind of the mountain. Also, Mt. Pinatubo in the Phillipines did not cause any widespread crop damage or global cooling.



The main concern right now is keeping airplanes out of the ash cloud, as the ash is very abrasive and could damage the engines, or even clog the engines causing the planes to crash.



If you are in the shadow of the volcano and need to clean the ash off of your personal property, use a stream of water, as brushing the ash off of surfaces will cause etching of the finish. (Auto body shops in Eastern Oregon, Eastern Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, and Colorado were heavily booked with people wanting their cars repainted after Mt. St. Helens blew itself up on May 18, 1980 because those people brushed the ash off their cars, only to discover that it scratched the paint job.)What is going to happen to the cloud that is hovering over Europe?
yesterday i heard in tv programme that it is possible that after this volcano eruption there will be ahother hard eruption from ahother vulcano near to this one.



the dust would fall down to earth if the volcano stops right now, but it is not clear to happen
The ashes(dust) will mix with clouds and fall as acid rains on the earth.(all over the world)

It may or not clear before summer but the sure thing is the summer will be cooler especially around europe this year.What is going to happen to the cloud that is hovering over Europe?
no it will start to fall (ash) although most of it will disintegrate when the ash falls it makes a spetaular sunset.
don't worry
