The usual refuse of these volcanic eruptions can easily cause a rain that lasts for "40 days and 40 nights" due to atmospheric pollution as well as an extensive period during which radiation from the sun is deflected back into space, and cause global cooling. 131 (Footnote) Certainly such an event would cause an ice age, extinctions of lifeforms and many other relatively long-term changes lasting thousands of years.
