Time of Year[edit]

The eruption occurred in April 1815, but the Northern Hemisphere "year without a summer" was 1816. This suggests that the global distribution of ash and dust took more than 3 months; otherwise 1815 would (also) be notable as much cooler than normal. Can anyone clarify the spread and dissipation timeline, at least in terms of weather records? Martindo (talk) 21:54, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
