Thankyou for giving us this unique experience to see mount vesuvius. We are doing a study of volcanoes but never expected to find a picture of a live volcanoe. It was really exciting and explosive!!!!!!!
dear georgie,
i need more information on the 1944 eruption of mt. vesuvius eruption. Where could i find what i am looking for? Other sites have information but they have info on the other eruptions and it is hard to find just the 1944 eruption. Could you help me? I have pictures of the other eruptions but i cant find any of the 1944 eruption. Please help me.

Mount Vesuvious erupted on August 79AD. The explosion buried the towns of Herculaneum, Pompeii, Stabiae, Oplontis, and Taurania. After the dust cleared where Pompeii once stood only the tops of buildings were left, leaving Pompeii buried completely with little trace. In the Eighth centery BC the valcano had been very active, but it had laid dormant for eight hundred years. A thick layer of lava had hardened over the top of the moutain, creating a plug. The pressure began to build once the plug was in place and slowly over time it grew and grew. On February AD 62 Italy was shaken by violent earthquaks as the gases tried to force their way out. Seventeen years later pressure had again built up and for four days there had been tremors, warning signs of an upcoming eruption. Streams around Vesuvious dried up but still the people did not seem to hardly notice. On the morning of the 24 of August 72 AD Pressure finally blew out the plug. Two thousand people died within the town of Pompeii, many more scattered on the country sides trying to flee. Pompeii was buried under 3 to 5 meters of pumic and ash. Herculaneum had it worse, being buried under thirteen meters of boiling mud that came pouring down the moutain in waves. Since AD 79 a new core has formed on the south of the crater (The crater is what is left of the mountain). The remaining crater walls exist under the same mount Somma.

I had a dream last night that we were in a restaurant near a big hill. The waiter handed me a note stating that Mt. Vesuvius was going to erupt on Tuesday and it didn't matter when we were leaving due to the massive eruption. So I went on this site and sure enough find out that there is some truth to my dream. Let's hope it was just a bad dream!!!

Hi,
i've had to study Mt vesuvious at uni and the topic i studied was the erruption pattern. It is not my place to say if you should go or not but i wouldn't go if i was you. Look it's a prediction and if you want to risk is then go but i would not.
What kind of things are around Mt. vesuvius to do? I am doing a project where I have to find some info on at leat 4 things to do there so far I have :
site Carthage
Ichkeul National Park
I need two more.
Thanks!
In answer to the person going on holiday in May.
No one knows when Vesuvius is going to erupt agin, but all seismology suggests that the volcano has entered a dormant phase. I went to Sorrento in August last year and there was little if any activity from the crater as I went up to the rim. Go, take your holiday and enjoy!
I am a Latin and Roman history teacher in Tampa, Florida, USA. Thank you for this wonderful webcam, as it is not only a beautiful view, but helpful in my instruction. I've been to Sorrento, and can appreciate the beautiful view you have. It is really wonderful, when translating the Latin of Pliny and his account of Pompeii's destruction, to see a real-time image!
Mille grazie!
I think you should try going to google.com and look up Mount Vesuvius's effects or other subjects like just Mt. Vesuvius and it should come up with a lot of stuff that should help. There are other search engines also such as dogpile.com or others.
Lerpiniere! Oh. My. God!!! Okay, it is SERIOUSLY freaky that I would find you when I'm looking for info. Are you doing Vesuvius too? Lol, I hope you don't spell it like that on your project!

If you people are serious, go to google.com and search for vesuvius pompeii. That should show up some REAL info. Me? I've been there. Climbed it, filmed it, looked right up close into the crater and taken a few rock samples. I've visited Pompeii too. Worth a trip (and for the record in case anyone who doesn't know - it's in ITALY - a country in EUROPE -and it's near a place called Napoli. Aim for that and you can't miss the mountain, it's kinda big....)
Hey um a suburb is a non-rural place. Where the houses r seperate from each other unlike the city where the houses r close to each other. Mostly holidays such as halloween r effected by being farther away from each other.
