The temperature in an active volcano is between 700 °C to 1,500 °C, because when a volcano is dormant or becomes inactive the temperature slowly (over many tens of years) falls to that of the ground surrounding it.

The weather conditions that cause a volcano to erupt are based underground activities. This is due to the hot temperatures and high pressure of the magma which seeks an exit channel into the earth.

It would be warm for the first few moments, and the temperatures would drop drastically for the next few days or months. This is because the ashes and other materials ejected out of the volcano during the eruption blocks out the sunlight and prevents it from shining down directly.

it affects the weather by the hot ash.

Volcanos spew hot ash and gases into the upper atmophere where it adds to greenhouse gasses and reflects sunlight back into space. This results in a cooling of the Earths overall temperature which can have some serious knock on effects to the weather on the planet.

The plume of debris from a volcano can travel thousands of miles in the jet stream. Should this cause a change in the sea temperature then the who stability of the Earths weather can be effected on a global scale.

Any weather conditions could be present, because volcanoes erupt due to underground processes. After a volcano erupts, the clouds of ash often lower the temperature by blocking out the Sun. A very large volcanic eruption can cause winterlike conditions all over the world.

When the plates under the earths crust colide and go one on top of each other,it starts the volcano on its first stage of a reaction.

Does the weather cause a volcano to erupt?

No because weather has no affect on the earth mantle and the mantle is the source of magma for the volcano.


Can a volcano be forced to erupt?

yes a series of explosions can cause some volcano's to erupt


When does an active volcano erupt?

They can erupt anytime, when magma rises from the mantle and spews out of the volcano.


Does cold weather effect a volcano?

It does not affect a volcano's ability to erupt. However, if a volcano is in a cold climate or tall enough that there is snow and ice at its summit, an eruption could cause this to melt. The water mixed with ash can form deadly mudflows called lahars.


What is a volcano that does not erupt called?

It can be called an active, dormant or extinct volcano. An active volcano erupts regularly and frequently, however, it might not erupt at some times. A dormant volcano rarely erupts. Therefore, it does not erupt for most of the time. An extinct volcano does not erupt anymore.
