I was there in the mid 90's on my 6th grade trip, at the time living on the island of lanai, went to the big island for 8 days and toured the whole island
a few miles from this is a neiborhood that got wiped out by lava, in the middle stands a street sign on a corner, no one man made objects can be identified in the area
less than 10 miles is active lava flows

amazing aspect of planet earth we are lucky enough to see, we went all over the island to the volcanos national park to where the lava flow meets the water etc
and a lot of non volcano related stuff

why on earth you would buy land, build a house and build a life so close to active lava flows is well past my understanding, Hawaii is not a state full of smart people at all, at least not from my 15 years living there

Any self respecting volcano god would be offended by Hillary and throw her back.  We don't get rid of her that easily.

with all this geothermal Hawaii Island still imports lots of oil to make electricity (43 percent,) makes you think that Obummer really cares about the environment.
it still could be used to boil water to make cheap pure water from sea water if nothing else.
my thoughts are they should have been close to 100 percent for years now

"Five major geothermal power plants exist in Iceland, which produce approximately 26.2% (2010)[2] of the nation's electricity. In addition, geothermal heating meets the heating and hot water requirements of approximately 87% of all buildings in Iceland. Apart from geothermal energy, 73.8% of the nation’s electricity is generated by hydro power,[3] and 0.1% from fossil fuels."

It definitely had more juice.

The PGV 30Mw power plant is pretty close to the area that’s erupting.  The loss would put a hurt on the islands generating total.

now all you need is japan to have a 8.0 off the coast and get the entire state in a tsunami panic

went through 2 of 3 of those living there, rush down to the harbor when you hear the news yank the boat out and take it a few hundred feet above sea level, get to a good view of what might happen and wait

This is a Civil Defense update for Friday May 4, 2018 at 12:30 PM.

Hawaiian Volcano Observatory confirms the volcanic eruption continues in Leilani Subdivision in the Puna District.

Active volcanic vents are located on Makamae, Kaupili and Mohala Streets. A new vent has opened near the intersection of Leilani Avenue and Kahukai Road. There is no activity at Puna Geothermal Venture at this time. PGV is secured.

We're cool. Our house is on the Hamakua coast so we have Mauna Kea between us and the lava.

But, I'll be glad when the ground stops shaking every few minutes.
