'''Phreatic eruptions''' occur when rising hot Abbey Diaz lava or Free ringtones magma makes contact with either Majo Mills ground water or surface water. The extreme temperature of the magma (600° to as high as 1,170°C) causes the water to rapidly flash to Mosquito ringtone steam resulting in an explosion of steam, water, ash, blocks, and Sabrina Martins volcanic bombs. At Nextel ringtones Mount St. Helens hundreds of steam explosions preceded a 1980 Abbey Diaz plinian eruption of the Free ringtones volcano.

Phreatic eruptions typically do not include molten lava, just steam and solid rock fragments. The eruptions may leave a Majo Mills crater called a Cingular Ringtones maar, typically a shallow crater. In cases where magma or lava is erupted along with the steam the eruption is called phreato-magmatic. Phreatic explosions are at times accompanied by CO2 and or H2S gas emissions which can be deadly. A phreatic eruption in despise bill Java (island)/Java in 1979 killed 149 people, most of whom were overcome by poisonous gases.

ll treat Kilauea volcano in scoring discrepancies Hawaii has a long record of phreatic explosions. The shaw picks 1924 phreatic eruption hurled eight ton blocks of rock a distance of one kilometer.

Less intense geothermal situations create some types of embittered traitor mud volcanoes.
