Fissure 16 has opened East of the other fissures. What little info I have is saying that it's in the woods/jungle and not an immediate threat to any houses. Reports of lava spatter... no sustained flow yet.

Thanks to all who have contributed to this thread.
Thoughts are with all those affected. Some folks have lost everything and that is a tragedy. Really interesting thread to read, though. |

They're saying another fissure is opening near fissure 16. which to me is just a continuation of 16... but who am I to criticize their labeling system?
Anyway according to USGS 16 produced a flow 750 feet long and it's activity is weakening. 17 started steaming earlier in the day and is just started spattering out lava. I updated my map with a guess based on their text description... but will have to wait for pictures for a more firm location. map |

I read something in the paper that sounded odd. It said that the HI NG would not go to a number of areas to help because they do not have gas masks that they can use. Is this indeed the case?

We are thinking about visiting the Big Island (Hilo) again in a few months. Kinda wondering if we should postpone. What do you guys think?

Quote HistoryQuoted: Unless it is a full blown eruption. Pyroclastic flows are scary AF. ... well... I guess there could be a land slide... there is evidence of that happening in the geologic past... but never in recorded history. So there would have to be some pretty compelling evidence that such a thing were about to happen before it's even worth considering. |

It seems at this point, there's going to be a line of fissures extending all the way to the ocean.

Fissure 19 opening up now just south of 18. the steaming cracks that people were calling 17 didn't produce lava so did not get the name. The fissure that people were calling 18 is officially 17. So any new fissure will be 18. |
