    I would like to thank you for the great videos you are putting on the Internet on the volcano activity. I am totally amazed and awe struck on the beauty and destruction of this event. Being on the ground you add much more realism to this event than what we would ever get in the states from the news. Watching them makes me want to be standing next to you witnessing fissure #8 myself. Thank you again!

    USGS volcanoligists have been disappointing in their ability or willingness to quantify what is happening with fissure 8 - except for one gentleman the other day who, in a public meeting, stated that they (USGS) had estimated the volume of lava flowing from fissure 8 to be between 6 and 9 MILLION cubic meters a day. To put this into terms of quantities that are somwhat easier to process, this rate of flow continuing for one month would be sufficient to cover an area of 10 square miles to a depth a little less than thirty feet. Or 15 square miles to a depth of just under 20 feet. This same volcanologist stated that this rate of flow was 15 to 25 times greater than the flow rate associated with the 1955 eruption. It is safe to say that no one alive has seen the equal of this. And no one has the slightest clue when it will stop.
    Your persistent and determined coverage of this exceptional catastrophe is brilliant in its own highly personal way, and we all owe you an enormous debt of gratitude.. If it was up to the USGS and the local and national media, we wouldn't know jack. So, Scott, what is your plan? Are you in this thing to the bitter end? Are you formulating any kind of exit strategy? Are you receiving enough "support" to hang in there? I think I might not be alone in feeling that I have gotten to know and like you well enough to feel concern for your well being. Let us know if you can.

    • @jamesking1306
      @jamesking1306 6 лет назад +3

      The average cement truck holds just over 6 cubic meters, so that would be over one million cements truck's worth of lava every day.

    The prickly plant that was still green is called a century plant. The sharp needles on the ends can be used to sew clothing. If you break it loose and rip it out, fibers from the plant attached to the needle are fibrous threads. Pretty cool plant.

    Many thanks for your coverage. We stayed in the area a couple of years ago when on holiday from Brisbane, Australia....very sad to see many lovely places gone, but understand this is nature. Those two surviving plants look like what we here call 'yuccas' (the shorter fat ones) and 'cardboard palms/cycads' (the more fern-like ones). The cardboard palms are survivors from the dinosaur age, so it's not so surprising they've been able to weather conditions which are killing other plants outright. And yuccas are also well-known for their toughness too, which is why they do well here in our hot climate.

  • @oceandrew
    @oceandrew 6 лет назад +4

    Just an FYI... when you're out in low light, low contrast conditions you make it difficult for your camera to find points to focus on when zooming in, especially if you zoom in all the way. The autofocus needs points of contrast to focus and in low light (early morning overcast for example) it has to work harder/slower to get into focus. Panning after zooming all the way in makes it impossible to find and reach focus.... gotta let the camera find its way.

    I decided to see what was going on over there one year ago today. Still so wild to see! Big Daddy was still working on his cone. The river was raging. You handled the encounter with the fire department very nicely and politely. ~~ I know it's only been a few days since your last video but I've been missing you. Hope all is ok. Hope you are just busy with tours. Or if you are taking a break from the vids, hope you are enjoying it but will be back with new videos or lives before too long.

    Awesome video as usual. Left checking to see if any more had been posted till I got home from work.
    #8 sure looks like it’s slowed down. Ok now for an odd question. One of my fellow workmates asked today if lava was still flowing and I said yes as well as telling him to watch your videos Scott. He was another on3 of those who though the whole island was affected. He also wanted to know if it outdoor be possible to build a pumice raft and paddle and safely go down a lava flow. Told him he was crazy but I’d ask. Lol he’s also the same guy awhile ago who thought he would be able to dive through a tsunami (yes you guessed it he’s in late teens) any thoughts welcome. Told him someone would probably have something to say. Scott if you see this I hope it makes your day. It made mine. Lol. Aloha

    Fingers crossed 8 is on a one-way ticket down, and not as a result of others reactivating. Won't hold my breath though. Can't remember if I mentioned that we're almost up to the length of the 1960 Kapoho eruption. History often repeats itself, though always a little differently.

    Another amazing video Scott!! Thank so much. Props to your coolness when the fite department rolled up. At 35M it is 114 Feet. I forgot to ask yesterday about the second area you were at today,why it looks like red cinder(which if it is ignore this)instead of black lava. The river and Big Daddy 8 continue to amaze us. I love the colors we see depending on the time of day. Just a little light makes a big difference. Yesterday when you were playing with your temperture gun I think you were probably picking up radiant heat off the river. I almost forgot to ask if you felt an earthquake around 4:30 this morning Hawaii time.
    Thank you again for all you are doing,Aloha

    I heard a scientist, named Bob McDonald, explain Kilauea's eruption. He said that there are "hot spots" in the Earth's crust and one, along with the movement of the tectonic plates, created Hawaii. Eventually, Kilauea will become inactive like the other Hawaiian volcanoes as the action continues to move off to its east. In a few thousand years, there will be a new Hawaiian island as the already formed islands continue to shift west away from the hot spot. Above the hot spot is where new land is formed.........pretty amazing.

    After watching this for a month, it made me wonder if moon phases have anything to do with the volume of lava ... for e.g. we just passed last quarter -- and like the tide, the flow volume seems to be a little lower. The week before was full moon -- when tides are always higher and the flows filled Kapoho Bay. Next week is new moon, plus summer solstice coming up a week later -- highest tides of the year in the northern hemisphere... wouldn't that affect lava output too?

      Are you confusing big daddy for the summit of Kīlauea? The earthquakes have been happening mostly at the summit and Scott and fissure 8 are quite a ways from the summit. Also please understand the difference between a shield volcano (Kīlauea) and a stratovolcano like the one that just erupted in Guatemala. One is highly violent with pyroclastic ash/clouds that kills many and one that has many vents in a rift zone which is Kīlauea that doesn’t usually kill people but cause a bit of damage.

    Wow! What a rush! I thought you're in trouble when that car showed up! All these videos are great, in many ways. Thank you, Scott, for sharing them! Last one was rush too! (Great to see how fast river flows!)

    Thanks as always! A meter is a little more than 39 inches.
