Michael Sheridan City Quotations

We didn't know that the city of Naples would be so threatened. We never had evidence for a blast extending into the Neapolitan area and beyond it.

I think this is really a major finding, finding up to three meters of ash that was traveling along the ground at hurricane velocities like the blast at Mount St. Helens. It would be like the blast of Mount St. Helens occurring but having a city that was destroyed.
