"being destroyed" implies that the apocalypse in this film is a Class X, when that's not really the case. The scale of the apocalypse in this film is actually roughly a planet-wide Class 2. Maybe Class 4 at the most depending on how many different species weren't brought onto the ark nor survived the tsunamis.

*** According to most, if not all, geologists and volcanologists, Anything within 100 miles of Yellowstone is screwed, though the rest of the world isn't any safer from the Ashes and more than likely imminent volcanic winter and possibly the next ice age.
*** Much of the eruption itself is highly inaccurate. First of all, before the main eruption even takes place, there would be a series of monstrous volcanic eruptions that take place all around the caldera. Second of all, there were no warning signs. There are specific warning signs that scientists look out for, such as increased gas levels within geothermal structures. There would also be swarms of earthquakes that would become more and more aggressive. Temperature changes within the geysers would also result. During the final stages of the imminent eruption, new cracks in the ground would have formed and geysers release superheated water. The terror doesn't stop there either. Volcanic lava begins oozing from cracks beneath the surface. This is the perfect time to shit yourself if you haven't already. Then last but not least, the ground will start rising from the pressure of the rising lava and expanding hot gases. But where it will begin to rise is still not yet known as there are multiple potential areas that the ground may rise. Geyser Basin being the most feared locations the ground may begin swelling. This is where things get real. Then, boom!. But there are still multiple eruptions that takes place before the main event.

*** The Yellowstone eruption. It manages an explosion probably measured in gigatons without any significant blast overpressure. Trees are flattened, but it abates within a mere mile or two - helpfully before obliterating all the major characters. Geologists say that in an eruption of that magnitude, anyone close enough to ''see'' it with the naked eye would not survive.

Geologists say that in an eruption of that magnitude, anyone close enough to ''see'' it with the naked eye would not survive. First of all, any right minded person who knows about the eruptive history of Yellowstone, would know that there would be multiple monstrous eruptions before the main eruption even takes place. Yellowstone just doesn't erupt with a massive explosion like a nuclear bomb. There are several eruptions that occur, according to most volcanologists and geologists, mainly because of the fact the entire supervolcano is a tightly sealed can. Secondly, there would be pyroclastic surges that rampage.
