#EastAfrica is leaving #Africa
it will take millions of years, but it is peeling off. From the #AfarDepression of #Ethiopia through the African Great Lakes and down past Malawi
There will be a 2nd Red Sea-like finger of the ocean, then a whole new ocean, and the Horn of Africa will be a new continent
What do we see of the process?
We see #HayliGubbi erupting yesterday
That hasn't happened in about 10,000 years
Merely a brief instant of geological time
