==Comparable events==
* [[Youngest_Toba_eruption#Toba_catastrophe_theory|Toba catastrophe]], a hypothetical cooling during the Late Pleistocene following the eruption  74,000 years ago.
* The 1628–1626 BC climate disturbances,{{citation needed|date=September 2024}} usually attributed to the [[Minoan eruption]] of [[Santorini]]
* The [[Hekla 3 eruption]] of about 1200 BC, contemporary with the historical [[Bronze Age collapse]]
* The [[Hatepe eruption]] (sometimes referred to as the Taupō eruption), around AD 180
* The [[Volcanic winter of 536|winter of 536]] has been linked to the effects of a volcanic eruption, possibly at Krakatoa, or of [[Ilopango]] in El Salvador
* The [[Heaven Lake]] eruption of [[Paektu Mountain]] between modern-day [[North Korea]] and the People's Republic of China, in 969 (± 20 years), is thought to have had a role in the downfall of [[Balhae]]
* The [[1257 Samalas eruption]] of [[Mount Rinjani]] on the island of [[Lombok]] in 1257
* The [[1452/1453 mystery eruption]] has been implicated in events surrounding the [[Fall of Constantinople]] in 1453
* An eruption of [[Huaynaputina]], in [[Viceroyalty of Peru|Peru]], caused 1601 to be the coldest year in the Northern Hemisphere for six centuries (see [[Russian famine of 1601–1603]]); 1601 consisted of a bitterly cold winter, a cold, frosty, nonexistent spring, and a cool, cloudy, wet summer
* An eruption of [[Laki]], in [[Iceland]], was responsible for up to hundreds of thousands of fatalities throughout the Northern Hemisphere (over 25,000 in England alone), and one of the coldest winters ever recorded in North America, 1783–1784; long-term consequences included poverty and famine that may have contributed to the [[French Revolution]] in 1789.<ref>Wood, C. A. (1992) ''The climatic effects of the 1783 Laki eruption'', pp. 58–77 in C. R. Harrington (Ed.), ''The Year Without a Summer?''. Canadian Museum of Nature, Ottawa, Canada.</ref>
* The [[1883 eruption of Krakatoa]] caused average Northern Hemisphere summer temperatures to fall by as much as 1.2&nbsp;°C (2.2&nbsp;°F). One of the wettest rainy seasons in recorded history followed in California during 1883–1884.
* The eruption of [[Mount Pinatubo]] in 1991 led to odd weather patterns and temporary cooling in the United States, particularly in the [[Midwestern United States|Midwest]] and parts of the Northeast. Every month in 1992 except for January and February was colder than normal. More rain than normal fell across the West Coast of the United States, particularly California, during the 1991–1992 and 1992–1993 rainy seasons. The American Midwest experienced more rain and major flooding during the spring and summer of 1993. This may also have contributed to the historic "[[Storm of the Century (1993)|Storm of the Century]]" on the Atlantic Coast in March that same year.{{citation needed|date=June 2020}}
