Italy's Campi Flegrei supervolcano is stirring. Could this seismic giant soon erupt?

It's a small step forward: Portland now has 890 new city-funded shelter beds (mostly overnight), a 200-bed site opening in 8 days, and supplies ready for 500+ “flex beds” that can be activated within 24 hour.
Nearly 7,500 people are living outside or in their vehicle in Multnomah County, the vast majority of them in Portland.
