How do volcanic eruptions affect the weather? *2 answers needed

• Gases and particles may block sunlight and lower temperature

• Eruptions form clouds that drop large amount of precipitation

• They can cause LONG TERM increase in temperature

• Vibrations caused by eruptions shift oceans currents, which in turn affect weather
