Was just looking at pics and video of the late 70’s early 80’s eruption...
I can only hope something like that happens again and is filmed in HD... |

What are the legalities of this eruption? Does one still own his property after mother nature resurfaces your shit? Does the .gov take it from you? Or other?

"UPDATE 5 p.m.
Civil Defense Administrator Talmadge Magno said a man suffered a “serious” leg injury this afternoon when he was “lava-bombed” by spatter while sitting on the porch of a house in an area off Highway 132 below the Lanipuna Garden subdivision. “I heard the injury was quite bad, serious to his leg,” Magno said." |

Laze (Lave Haze)
Laze is a hydrochloric acid mist formed by the action of lava on seawater. Extreme heat from lava entering the sea rapidly boils and vaporizes seawater, leading to a series of chemical reactions. The boiling and reactions produce a large white plume, locally known as lava haze or laze, which contains a mixture of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and concentrated seawater. Key seawater chloride breakdown reactions that produce HCl gas: MgCl2 (sea salt) + H2O (steam) = MgO (periclase) + 2HCl (HCl gas) 2 NaCl (sea salt) + H2O (steam) = Na2O (sodium oxide) + 2 HCL (HCl gas) CaCl2 (sea salt) + H2O (steam) = CaO (lime) + 2 HCL (HCl gas) |

Good news.
http://www.hawaiicounty.gov/active-alerts This is a Civil Defense Message for Saturday, May 19 at 6:00 in the evening. Hawaiian Volcano Observatory continues to monitor active flows which have joined together into one flow. The flow is currently in state forest reserve lands and heading in the general direction of MacKenzie State Park. No structures are threatened at this time. Residents should be aware that the lava flow is currently about half a mile from Highway 137 and, at the current rate, may cross the highway within the next five to six hours. Should the lava enter the ocean be aware of the laze hazard and stay away from any ocean plume. |

The fast cooling lava also forms volcanic glass which gets pulverized and dispersed in the air. This glass shard dust is very bad for your lungs... Do not breathe it. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

a bit of bad news.
http://www.hawaiicounty.gov/active-alerts This is a Civil Defense Message for Saturday, May 19 at 6:30 in the evening. Active lava flows have caused brush fires to spread from the flow front toward Kamaili Road. Residents on Kamaili Road need to evacuate the area immediately. County and state fire units are in the area, going door-to-door to make sure people are informed and check if they need assistance. Everyone needs to stay clear of this area. |

trying to listen to events on this scanner:
https://www.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/28068 But it's real quiet... something's funky with the audio. The Lava might have just crossed 137... or they could be talking about something happening over at 132. I can't tell. |

just seeing this alert.
http://www.hawaiicounty.gov/active-alerts This is a Civil Defense Message for Saturday, May 19 at 9:00 in the evening. Hawaiian Volcano Observatory continues to monitor active flows. The flow originating from fissure 20 has again split into two lobes, both are currently heading in the general direction of the 13 mile marker on Highway 137. Flow front #1 is approximately 630 meters from Highway 137 and moving about a 100 meters per hour. Flow front #2 is approximately 750 meters from Highway 137 and moving about the same speed. At the current rate, the lava flow may cross the highway within the next five to seven hours. Highway 137 is closed between Kamaili Road and Pohoiki Road. Kamaili Road is closed between Highway 130 and Highway 137 due to a brush fire. Residents in the area have been evacuated. ---- so that's as of an hour ago. could be crossing now. |

listening intently to the radio scanner.
The lava has made contact with high way 137 at mile marker 13. |
|
I've heard that the highway is cut, the lava has reached the ocean, the NG is telling everyone to GTFO now, and there's traffic jams with people trying to escape. Not sure how much of that is true, though. Supposedly Hawaii Civil Defence is having a live broadcast somewhere.

137 is cut. The lava has reached the ocean.
Kamaiki rd was evacuated due to wild fire ignited by the lava flow threatening it. With only 1 road out... 130 which has huge cracks in it covered by steel plates that they're having to monitor to make sure they don't get too hot... Yeah... I'd expect there was or is some traffic. |

https://volcanoes.usgs.gov/volcanoes/kilauea/status.html
Magma continues to be supplied to the lower East Rift Zone; however, a GPS instrument near the Lower East Rift Zone is no longer moving suggesting that the rift zone is no longer inflating in this area. Elevated earthquake activity continues, but earthquake locations have not moved farther downrift in the past couple of days. ---- So amateur geologist hat me... The ground isn't inflating... it also isn't deflating... and the flow into the area isn't causing more movement... So I'm taking this to mean Flow Out is equaling Flow In. In other words the current surface vents are allowing enough flow out so the pressure under ground isn't increasing with the addition of new lava. The flow in isn't stopping or else we'd see deflation. It's like you're filling a balloon and a small hole developed in it that is letting air out such that it exactly matches the air you're pumping into it... so the balloon is no longer changing size. |
