I've been watching your videos for weeks now. They're an amazing resource during this incredible event. Thank you for the time and care you take to bring all of us closer to this important event. Take care of yourself and be safe.
What you're doing is a genuine gift - to many and in different ways. More "real" than any traditional news could ever be! Big Island thanks. Trusting you and still - be safe.
Dear Scott-I had a very bad case of the flu last week. When the eruption first started, my sisters were visiting in Hilo, so I became interested. So, this weekend while I was recuperating, I binge watched Scott and Apau Hawaii Tours video blog. I absolutely loved the personal touch and a kindred curious soul. I think I would be doing the same careful watching of this new Earth forming. I hope to come enjoy one of your tours when this is all over with and things come back to the new normal. Stay safe, and thank you very much!
Run dude, with that levy overflow coming towards you., man your freaking me out getting to close to all this, at the same time I want so see more. But I also want to send my deepest love and prayers to all the residents that have lost their homes, businesses and everything thing they own, my heart goes out to each and everyone one of them, I saw a video of the mayor he looked defeated and broken this was so devastating to watch I found myself in tears, it’s all just heartbreaking. Be safe Scott. - Kirstie
How this beautiful area has been decimated, from incredible landscaping, to desolate moonscape. It's really sad, but awe inspiring too, I am completely addicted to watching every day. And I wake up at a crazy time, after staying up till almost 5:00 am (Hawaii is 6 hours behind me in time on the East coast of Canada) so I can see what's happening during your night, too. You're a great virtual tour guide, and a public service, too. Thank you again.
Holy Wowzers! Big Aloha from Maui and Much Mahalos!! What a sight, that no one would ever see, if it wasn’t for you! Your work is so appreciated and we get front row seats! Well, almost....except for the heat and smoke. ❤️🙏🌺🌈🌋😍
Thank you again for putting this stuff up for all to see. Be careful of that levy bank. There is substantial cracking at the base of it, with material emerging. They often fail from the base like that, rather than when they are over-topped. One little earthquake there and much of that river could be headed your way at 30mph or worse.
I did hear the tephra hitting that roof once the wind started blowing it over there. By the way, I've been listening to these videos since May 20th, and I'm absolutely hooked. I sometimes wondered if you were okay, because you'd had some pretty long days back a few weeks ago. I started listening to the actual volcano back on the 19th of May, and some of the videos from Honolulu Civil Beat had me keeping vigil for days and praying for everyone. The nuns at Holy Transfiguration Women's Monastery in Ellwood City, Pennsylvania have been praying for you all as well. It's just amazing that there's new land over there that's bigger now than Manhattan. Looking forward to hearing more. Heather
Incredible. The noise and pyrotechnics are both fascinating and terrifying. A river of lava moving nearly as fast as water. . . Thank you for all these videos and your humor and down-to-earth attitude. I have learned so much. Be safe, hug your friends , 2 footed & 4 footed 🐾👤
So you are on the back side of the horseshoe of #8. If it ruptured the lava could head straight for you. Please be safe and vigilant. We would hate to lose you. You are so awesome and when all this is over we will miss these fantastic reports.
This really the first video that I've seen that has captured even a fraction of what must be the incredible sound emitted by that vent. Also: You noted how bright it was...the auto bright on your cam must really darken it. It must be almost white-hot! That's some hot lava! Thanks for your bravery and great videography. So valuable in contrast to all of the worthless, third-hand video, and computer-voice ripoff channels and their tripe that almost makes the signal-to-noise ratio on this topic impossible to overcome now on RUclips! Stay safe...Best Wishes from East O'ahu!
I really appreciate that you put the catholic charities link on your site. Many there have lost everything and there are many more whos homes may still stand that can never go back. Happy to donate. Keep those 4am wakeups to get you to fissure 8. You have me looking forward to every new update each morning.
Once again the intrepid Scott goes, where no one dares! Good insight from the USGS though, think I've probably learnt more about volcanoes in the past month watching and listening to your videos than I did at school. I definitely reckon you've the making of a great documentary maker too, along side your tours.
I can understand the USGS people being a bit reluctant about going in certain areas they are unsure of being able to get out of. They often take chances as it is in and around volcanoes and there is a history in the USGS of lives lost from scientists in seemingly safe situations that never made it out. That certainly happened at Mt St Helens's where the last picture of David Johnston, from the USGS was of him sitting outside his camper on a sunny day while he monitored Mt St Helen's 13 hours before the eruption. Although he was one of the scientists that convinced the Forestry service to close the park he certainly though he was safe where he was camped. His last words transmitted back to the USGS base were "Vancouver! Vancouver! This is it!" and then he was swept by the lateral blast form the mountain. Of course, the mountain was not expected to blast out laterally and so its assumed he expected to watch a vertical eruption. No one can ever foretell what an eruption will do or what will change suddenly and no matter what you think a volcano will do it will do as it will. They never found Johnstons body although some 13 years later the remains of his trailer were discovered so it goes to show you that what I am sure are instances in any USGS scientists mind when going into the area of an active eruption. (and yes something you should take care to heed too). I look at just how many things have changed at Kilauea since this phase of activity has happened and how just the lava consistency and flow of have changed since the initial slow moving 'old lava' that one could seemingly out walk (did not even have to walk fast) to now a much faster running newer lava. Although it seems like Kilauea's fissure eruptions and any fissures return to activity has warning signs please keep safe and remember that while up to now the fissures have always had warning signs, it only takes one to decided to roar to life with no warning for someone to be injured. Whats really hard to tell for me now, as the cone/rampart builds up higher around fissure 8 is whether the fountain is not as high as it was or if the cone around the fountain is higher and so makes it hard to really determine how high the fountain is as you can only really measure the height of what is showing above the cone
Hi Scott, I’ve been following you for a couple of weeks and I want to say Thank You for the documentation of this. It’s so difficult to find true reports of what’s going on there and you sir are doing an awesome job!! Please stay safe and keep up the good work!! Aloha from E. Tennessee 😁
Wow. This just popped up in my suggestions (4/24/23), and it sure brings back memories. It’s hard to believe that this was almost five years ago. Back then I checked in to see your videos almost every day during eruption. I was neat to see a clip of Griff the other day, and I hope Goliath is still doing well-and I hope your tour business has recovered fully.
I have a feeling why the lava eruption seems to have reduced is that it has been building up a cone around the eruption making it look like it has reduced in eruptive power .
Thanks for the video tour. Aside from the opening days of eruption, mainland US news rarely has any updates, probably because there are no fatalities yet. (If it bleeds, it leads) The UK has frequent reports, but they are sensationalized. The Express has been calling for a "major eruption within 24 hours" for a week. Thanks again.
I watched this video on my TV. Near the end or maybe the last 20, I saw a large piece flowing in the river from right to left. Then your pan went off the area. SO COOL!!! Then I got on my phone and couldn't see it as well. But I did see it. Scott, thanks again.
Just watching fissure 8 in the dawn, with that angle and smoke, it's breathtaking. It's also terrifying. Scott, you do good work, and you're an excellent cameraman. Thank you for becoming the "Earnie Pyle" of the Kilauea volcano eruption 2018, because you really are. We don't get coverage about this otherwise. In fact, I saw someone on the news say that the eruption was past tense, not ongoing, Be safe. Please, and thank you for documenting this when no one else is. I hope no one else reports you for this work, because it's essential and good what you are doing.
Pele is showing her power! It’s so amazing to see the lava bursting upwards and so powerful sounds of the earth! Thank you for your videos! You got balls of fire! Amazing footage of the devastation...this ain’t over!
The images of the fissure where breathtaking. The colors were so beautiful. Thank you for panning the sky with the ever changing colors from the fountain. It was amazing that the co e seemed to be glowing, instead of the black silhouette it usually shows. Makes you wonder if the lava is getting even hotter. Wow!
Thank you Scott, for keeping the updates coming. I`m in Australia, and our news isnt giving much information at all, only the Guatemala situation. My heart goes out to those who have lost everything to Madam Pele` .
Almost poetic Scott. The scary fire and brimstone in the forefront with the promise of a glorious day in the background.... I tend to read more into things than are probably intended... but still
The sun rising is just so magnificent and magical there. I love Hilo side even with the rain. Visited last May I visit my Ohana in Oahu and took a trip there stayed in the volcano park for a week, such beauty on your side. Mahalo for the videos and your information. 💜
Wow, the volume coming out looks like it has increased, along with the size of the fissure. I watched Paradise Helicopters aerial shots too, and the lava is just PUMPING out...absolutely incredible! Stay safe, Scott and thank you for these updates! Can't stop watching!
Thank you. You’re a champ to keep showing the neighborhood-and the world-this spectacle of nature happening side-by-side where humans have encroached. Island building IS Hawai’i...
A few days ago USGS estimated the #8 lava effusion rate between 6-9 million cubic meters (200-300 million cubic feet) per day. Assuming the lava out of #8 Leilani is what used to be in (the now empty) Halema‘uma‘u and Pu'u o'o craters, back--of-the-envelope number crunching comes to #8 has a lava source for about 30 days at current effusion rates. Of course such estimates have long lists of caveats which is why USGS staff shy away from making them: #8 could cap itself at anytime or an earthquake pinch off the lava supply or likewise the lava source could be different.
Rob D the cave in has put pressure on fissure 8... I believe... and the more the cladera caves in the bigger the show at fissure 8. Not to mention those earthquakes at mona loa and what looks like undersea vents off the coast. And from previous events these can last for some time.
The colours that you get at dawn along with the erupting lava are quite awesome. Thank you, Scott, for all that you do. Say hi to those pups of yours for me :)
To get a better understanding of what this river of lava is doing downstream, USGS posted a 37 second video of a flyover just north of what was Kapoho Bay. Titled "Kīlauea Volcano - Ocean Entry and Laze" it shows what appears to be the hand of Madam Pele reaching out to the ocean. (Metaphor) The remaining buildings are all adjacent the 1960 lava flow. The flow from fissure 8 is currently consuming what remains of the tide pools just to the south. No words!
Been following your videos for a couple weeks now. Thank you for sharing all this amazing footage and your commentary! This event has been so incredibly heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time. I only have one question. In the first half of this video, how far are you from the fountain?
@4:44-4:46 I think you can see that 3 foot Tephra falling that you pointed out Scott! It is hard to see and looks very small because of the glow but it appears to fall straight down at the base and from the front of the cone/rampart of the fissure. Looking at the center of the fountain. Just thought you should know what I saw. Absolutely stunning video! Well Done! Mahalo Scott!
listened to local Hawaii news and sounds like 200 acres of land has been added by lava flowing to the ocean. need to check HVO to keep up with current status as it is changing all the time. this morning around 5am there was a steam explosion and a 5.2 earthquake and more slumping on the volcano itself. If you live in Hawaii please listen to the HVO USGS folks as this is ongoing - Stay safe and our prayers are with you all
USGS doesn't want to go there? I get it. You are performing a valuable service to them. We on the main land get so little information about this from our news sources.
No words could sufficiently capture the ferociousness of this. This was a great bit of videography you did. Loved it when you turned the camera to capture the sky the billowing clouds and the glow! That was awesome! Thank you!
The colours are truly mesmerizing .This is indeed a grand & awesome time to be alive, (hope I can continue to say & think this)...We are witnessing that creative divine fire. Magnificent. Thanks for taking risks to show the power. Keep safe.
Hey, Scott. Good video, as always. That is one hell of a way to start the day, all that debris on your chair speaks to what is coming out of the fissure. Quite the cauldron. Thank you, and stay safe amigo!
Hi Scott. Really nice and exceptional as usual. You are becoming quite a cameraman since all this started. A GoPro would make your videos even better (picture quality wise). But still filming with your phone gives us a good feel of it all. Mahalo.
Good Morning! If you look at the latest USGS updated lava flow map from 20180610, you can see the lava overflow from the lava river in Leilani Estates around Kahukai and Makamae.
If you own land coverd with lava now can you cutt a road and rebuild on top of it later...or if it's not to deep can you clear the LAVA down to earth. ..?
this vid says it all (again): the wild roaring anger of fissure 8 in the early morning, it scared me. And then birdsong at the start of day, still there in spite of all the toxic stuff that's in the air. Thank you for showing it.
Been watching all of your updates every night, thank you for your bravery! I'm still scared for you though! Terrifies me! Please be careful! With all that stuff in the air, you should wear your mask! Yes, I sound like a mom...and I am! LOL!
Thank You Scott for passing on my donation to the catholic charities. I could not enter in the suburb or region fields and therefore it wouldn't process my credit card. For all the other people reading your comments I would like to confirm that I did indeed get a receipt from Scott for passing my donation on. So please donate through Scott's site if you have any difficulties from other countries. Every bit helps to rebuilt the residents rather shattered lives. Donate, Donate, Donate PLEASE.
My heart also goes to Guatemala volcán“El Fuego” victims. Pyroclastic flow of 130+ mph and lava flows of over 50+ mph down its classic stratovolcano sides.
The roar with the earphones on is just fantastic. What a mind altering experience to hear, and see the earth's most fundamental dynamic building process. Luck, lucky you And luck, luck me that I have technology to hear what it sounds like. I had know idea that it was so load, in fact I never even thought of it as having any sound at all as almost every film is silent on that score.
Awesome Scott. No 8 is really firing up today. I noticed that there is still red lava visible on the fissure next to no 8 right at the top. That lava river is still running very fast.
I've been watching your videos for weeks now. They're an amazing resource during this incredible event. Thank you for the time and care you take to bring all of us closer to this important event. Take care of yourself and be safe.
What you're doing is a genuine gift - to many and in different ways. More "real" than any traditional news could ever be! Big Island thanks. Trusting you and still - be safe.
I’ve been staring in awe at the continuous rotation in the air above nr8. The light and the colors are breathtaking.
Thanks for showing us!

I love when you panned up to the sky. The colours are beautiful. Mahalo for another great vid!
I have learned more from your videos than any other youtube channel. So thankful Scott!!

This Never gets boring!
Amazing footage once again. Love that you let nature be the “song” for your videos. Stay safe!!
Holy Wowzers! Big Aloha from Maui and Much Mahalos!! What a sight, that no one would ever see, if it wasn’t for you! Your work is so appreciated and we get front row seats! Well, almost....except for the heat and smoke. ❤️🙏🌺🌈🌋😍
Thanks for just letting us enjoy the natural ambiance!
Thank you for your videos. I still look forward to them every day!!
Nothing but amazing. I haven't stopped watching you since the beginning. God bless you all!
Thank you again for putting this stuff up for all to see. Be careful of that levy bank. There is substantial cracking at the base of it, with material emerging.

Thank you for all these videos and your humor and down-to-earth attitude. I have learned so much.
Be safe, hug your friends , 2 footed & 4 footed 🐾👤
Thanks for letting us hear natural sounds of the volcano and birds! Makes one feel as if we were ‘almost’ there! 😊
Acts2:36 -39 it’s frogs
Grandma Adelaide -. Thanks. They sound so pleasant. What kind of frog? I will look it up to learn more about them.
So you are on the back side of the horseshoe of #8. If it ruptured the lava could head straight for you. Please be safe and vigilant. We would hate to lose you. You are so awesome and when all this is over we will miss these fantastic reports.

Still amazes me how something so distructive is so beautiful!!! So overflow is making the levee higher and wider I guess. Thanks Scott!!
Thank you for capturing all this footage at such a difficult time
Wow! You've got some cardinals really singing their hearts out. How beautiful to hear them sing inspite of all the destruction. Mahalo
Scott, you are documentating the making of a vulcano. How brilliant and beautiful is that.
I just can't get over how loud it is.
I can understand the USGS people being a bit reluctant about going in certain areas they are unsure of being able to get out of.

Hi Scott,
I’ve been following you for a couple of weeks and I want to say Thank You for the documentation of this. It’s so difficult to find true reports of what’s going on there and you sir are doing an awesome job!! Please stay safe and keep up the good work!! Aloha from E. Tennessee 😁
Wow you're looking like a real pro! What with the excellent pan shots! Seriously enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing your videos!!!
As a photographer I am incredibly envious.
Wow. This just popped up in my suggestions (4/24/23), and it sure brings back memories. It’s hard to believe that this was almost five years ago. Back then I checked in to see your videos almost every day during eruption. I was neat to see a clip of Griff the other day, and I hope Goliath is still doing well-and I hope your tour business has recovered fully.
I have a feeling why the lava eruption seems to have reduced is that it has been building up a cone around the eruption making it look like it has reduced in eruptive power .
So glad someone is documenting this event. Great work!
Thanks for the video tour. Aside from the opening days of eruption, mainland US news rarely has any updates, probably because there are no fatalities yet. (If it bleeds, it leads) The UK has frequent reports, but they are sensationalized. The Express has been calling for a "major eruption within 24 hours" for a week. Thanks again.
I watched this video on my TV. Near the end or maybe the last 20, I saw a large piece flowing in the river from right to left. Then your pan went off the area. SO COOL!!!
Then I got on my phone and couldn't see it as well. But I did see it.
Scott, thanks again.
it's insane how much I've seen this whole area change since I started watching your videos
Amazing and beautiful Scott. Thank you again for sharing this historic adventure with us. Aloha and mahalo!
Just watching fissure 8 in the dawn, with that angle and smoke, it's breathtaking. It's also terrifying. Scott, you do good work, and you're an excellent cameraman. Thank you for becoming the "Earnie Pyle" of the Kilauea volcano eruption 2018, because you really are. We don't get coverage about this otherwise. In fact, I saw someone on the news say that the eruption was past tense, not ongoing, Be safe. Please, and thank you for documenting this when no one else is. I hope no one else reports you for this work, because it's essential and good what you are doing.
Mary Yellott what? Who said it had stopped? I don't watch the news for this reason ,😋
Pele is showing her power! It’s so amazing to see the lava bursting upwards and so powerful sounds of the earth! Thank you for your videos! You got balls of fire! Amazing footage of the devastation...this ain’t over!
The images of the fissure where breathtaking. The colors were so beautiful. Thank you for panning the sky with the ever changing colors from the fountain.
It was amazing that the co e seemed to be glowing, instead of the black silhouette it usually shows. Makes you wonder if the lava is getting even hotter. Wow!
I'm amazed on how much sound can come from a volcano
Thank you Scott, for keeping the updates coming. I`m in Australia, and our news isnt giving much information at all, only the Guatemala situation. My heart goes out to those who have lost everything to Madam Pele` .
Almost poetic Scott. The scary fire and brimstone in the forefront with the promise of a glorious day in the background.... I tend to read more into things than are probably intended... but still
The sun rising is just so magnificent and magical there. I love Hilo side even with the rain. Visited last May I visit my Ohana in Oahu and took a trip there stayed in the volcano park for a week, such beauty on your side. Mahalo for the videos and your information. 💜

Good Morning, Stay safe and thank you for keeping us tuned in. Much love.
The sky is so beautiful.....and scary at the same time....thanks as always for your diligent work...
Thank you. You’re a champ to keep showing the neighborhood-and the world-this spectacle of nature happening side-by-side where humans have encroached. Island building IS Hawai’i...
One of your best videos Scott! Amazing how it looked and sounded then.
A few days ago USGS estimated the #8 lava effusion rate between 6-9 million cubic meters (200-300 million cubic feet) per day. Assuming the lava out of #8 Leilani is what used to be in (the now empty) Halema‘uma‘u and Pu'u o'o craters, back--of-the-envelope number crunching comes to #8 has a lava source for about 30 days at current effusion rates. Of course such estimates have long lists of caveats which is why USGS staff shy away from making them: #8 could cap itself at anytime or an earthquake pinch off the lava supply or likewise the lava source could be different.
Rob D the cave in has put pressure on fissure 8... I believe... and the more the cladera caves in the bigger the show at fissure 8. Not to mention those earthquakes at mona loa and what looks like undersea vents off the coast. And from previous events these can last for some time.
The colours that you get at dawn along with the erupting lava are quite awesome. Thank you, Scott, for all that you do. Say hi to those pups of yours for me :)
Thank you for this opportunity.
~ breathtaking ~
Great work! Perfect time of day
Wow dude you're doing it again. Just spectacular photography.
The smoke clouds billowing against the brightening sky in the first video are beautiful
Thank God for you! I can’t even watch the US Military News channel anymore. All clickbait and old clips with robot voice. Shameful.
Thank you!!!!
Tialin .:. Apparently that is not truly a military channel. Someone said it is actually run by Al Jazerra!!! I'm out of there!!!
I hate the robot voice.
TY, this never gets old or tiring. Awesome 👏🏼
I have been following your videos and all I can say is it is a truly awesome event. Be safe!
Wow! What a capture and still can't believe the sound! Thanks again Scott!

Breathtaking to watch. I could stay there all day if I were there. Looks like it's getting smaller, but at the same time it looks more vicious.
today is my B-DAY and here i am waching Scott video ,lol
Been following your videos for a couple weeks now. Thank you for sharing all this amazing footage and your commentary! This event has been so incredibly heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time. I only have one question. In the first half of this video, how far are you from the fountain?
400 metres approximately.
There's our chair, I didn't do that!😂🤣 I don't know why ai found that so funny hee hee. Thanks for always keeping us up on what's going on!
@4:44-4:46 I think you can see that 3 foot Tephra falling that you pointed out Scott! It is hard to see and looks very small because of the glow but it appears to fall straight down at the base and from the front of the cone/rampart of the fissure. Looking at the center of the fountain. Just thought you should know what I saw. Absolutely stunning video! Well Done! Mahalo Scott!
The volume of smoke those fissures belch is incredible.
listened to local Hawaii news and sounds like 200 acres of land has been added by lava flowing to the ocean. need to check HVO to keep up with current status as it is changing all the time. this morning around 5am there was a steam explosion and a 5.2 earthquake and more slumping on the volcano itself.

wow! incredible. thank you for this view. It's amazeing, I imagine the heat coming from that fissure.
Just shared this w my brother. He was shocked. That river flow in the daylight is unreal.
Thank you again Scott for sharing. See ya tomorrow. Aloha!
Hey, Scott. Good video, as always. That is one hell of a way to start the day, all that debris on your chair speaks to what is coming out of the fissure. Quite the cauldron. Thank you, and stay safe amigo!
Hi Scott. Really nice and exceptional as usual. You are becoming quite a cameraman since all this started. A GoPro would make your videos even better (picture quality wise). But still filming with your phone gives us a good feel of it all. Mahalo.
Good Morning! If you look at the latest USGS updated lava flow map from 20180610, you can see the lava overflow from the lava river in Leilani Estates around Kahukai and Makamae.
If you own land coverd with lava now can you cutt a road and rebuild on top of it later...or if it's not to deep can you clear the LAVA down to earth. ..?
Love the colours in these morning videos! Gorgeousness! Please be careful Scott.
this vid says it all (again): the wild roaring anger of fissure 8 in the early morning, it scared me. And then birdsong at the start of day, still there in spite of all the toxic stuff that's in the air. Thank you for showing it.
Been watching all of your updates every night, thank you for your bravery! I'm still scared for you though! Terrifies me! Please be careful! With all that stuff in the air, you should wear your mask! Yes, I sound like a mom...and I am! LOL!
The birds singing was exceptional
I thought it was about to end but after watching this morning it seem #8 is like the energizer bunny. It just keeps going and going...
With the birds singing at least you know you have good air.
Thank You Scott for passing on my donation to the catholic charities. I could not enter in the suburb or region fields and therefore it wouldn't process my credit card.
For all the other people reading your comments I would like to confirm that I did indeed get a receipt from Scott for passing my donation on. So please donate through Scott's site if you have any difficulties from other countries. Every bit helps to rebuilt the residents rather shattered lives. Donate, Donate, Donate PLEASE.
My heart also goes to Guatemala volcán“El Fuego” victims. Pyroclastic flow of 130+ mph and lava flows of over 50+ mph down its classic stratovolcano sides.
Kilauea is a gentle volcano compared to that monster El Fuego.
I love watching your vedio thank you so much an prayers to all who going thru this horrible volcano god bless everyone.. Thanks again..
The roar with the earphones on is just fantastic. What a mind altering experience to hear, and see the earth's most fundamental dynamic building process. Luck, lucky you And luck, luck me that I have technology to hear what it sounds like. I had know idea that it was so load, in fact I never even thought of it as having any sound at all as almost every film is silent on that score.
Scott I watch your film every night and continue to be mesmerized by your amazing footage it is amazing
One of the best vids I like to HEAR the Sounds of that lava I like it
I keep waiting for a T-Rex to run by😀
FYI Put the not for rebroadcast higher. It was attempted here again with creative editing .
Thank you Scott. Aloha.
Gorgeous sky!
Quite the eco system going on there!
Mahalo, Scott!
Love the videos Scott. How about a selfie, like we hear you but never see you.
Hypnotic isn't it.
I can understand why the chair is there, someone just wanted to sit an watch.
its a marker
Awesome Scott. No 8 is really firing up today. I noticed that there is still red lava visible on the fissure next to no 8 right at the top. That lava river is still running very fast.
wow, it looks like it’s creating its own weather... amazing.
It is doing that
Thank you so much for all you're doing I'm so mesmerized by your videos
Wow I wish I had some of that energy ! I t is hard to believe it has been over a month you sure get up earily
