The blue methane flames in the road is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Makes me wish I had the time and money to go see this event first hand. Stay safe Hawaii and god bless
Could you guys release an activity or volume line graph of each fissure and the crater's activity over time since this eruption first began with a different color line for each fissure and the cone? It is so hard to see the overall activity of this eruption because all we see are the buzz videos with whatever big thing is happening that day. It would be helpful for all to see the rise and fall of activity as a whole. Thanks.
"Rift zone is widening." Doesn't that mean that the Hilina slump might become more than just a slump given that there's little holding the south side of the rift zone to the north side?
There is a fracking plant next to the vents, are they responsible for causing this? I know lava is not a result of the fracking, but what I mean is did they open up vents that would have not opened if they were not fracking.
There's something bittersweet about this kind of natural disaster. People are displaced and have lost their property, but there is no danger to life as long as people exercise common sense. And the end result is ultimately a gain. Hawaii is literally growing.
Sorry but you have been deceived along with most people , as God created earth about 6000 years ago and its life and this universe is coming to a quick end . Read your bible !
jeff leroy Bible isn’t an earth owners manual. Has nothing to do with geology/volcanology. Give up on the 6000 year Ussher chronology. Not even bible, just some bishop’s interpretation. Not even catechism.
I am very curious about one scene in the video. It shows two troops and a couple civilians standing on a road. The mountain of lava looks to be 20 to 30 feet deep. Can you give us some details on just how high this wall of lava is? This is an amazing view.
They cannot reach the power plant. Access has been cut off by the lava. Lava will eventually cover it and burn it to the ground and the water will evaporate. when that happens nothing different than what is happening now will occur.
I wonder about septic tanks and cess pools. Those are basically methane pockets trapped under ground. Now that the houses have burnt they no longer vent it into the air through the roof vents.
Never mind some septic tanks when the incoming lava burns everything anyway. The lava sets free lots and lots of fumes, gases and who knows what else. You would not care about any mouse droppings in a septic tank?!
I think the USGS person may be wrong, the blue flames might not be methane but sulfur burning. Sulfur burns with a blue flame. Also, the burning flames leave a yellow residue of sulfur. Here's the cracks a few days ago with sulfur along the cracks... ruclips.net/video/vethCuyX1DI/видео.html www.newscientist.com/article/mg22229700-100-ethiopias-blue-volcano-burns-deadly-sulphuric-gas/
I understand gases released by volcanic activity I live Molokai Hawaii. Just brought it up because it was said, pockets of methane from burnt trees if trapped could cause explosions. Septic tanks and cess pools are basically bio digesters that produce methane and release it through plumbing vents. If the vents and leach field are sealed by lava you have a digester with no way of emitting gas...= underground bomb. So thanks for schooling me on who knows what else.
I agree that fissure 22 is going to be significant does everything seem significant it does to myself my question is does vulcanism in Iceland have the same troubles of methane blue flame possibility or is this the geothermal plant about to blow? Am I on the pulse
I think the USGS person was wrong, the blue flames are burning sulfur. The cracks have sulfur residues in daylight, and sulfur burns with a blue flame. It's not the first time blue sulfur burning lava has been spotted. Here's a guy who visited the road where the blue flames were seen a few days ago, the cracks were lined with sulfur deposits. ruclips.net/video/vethCuyX1DI/видео.html www.newscientist.com/article/mg22229700-100-ethiopias-blue-volcano-burns-deadly-sulphuric-gas/
Ray, at least their tax liability is zero on the property if it gets covered by lava, but if they took a loan out they owe. Unless they have insurance to cover the loss.
Darrell Grisham Actually a lava flow on your property doesn’t relieve property taxes. You still own your property, even if you can’t get to it. I don’t think you’ll find a mortgage company that took a loan on volcano homes. Cash only. (So I’ve been told)
Megs Tristram Thanks Megs . Thats what I expected. Some of them looked like they had put a lot of money up against a volcano. It would have been very painfull, but after looking at that map with lava flows in the three previous periods, I really think they knew the risk.
Trainfan1055 there are Mouna Loa rift zones that could effect any part of the island depending which becomes active. Building on the leeward side doesn’t really promise anything. People of Hawaii know this though. There are VERY few people who live big island that just magically didn’t think about the fact they live on a volcanically active island.
room-360 I mean, sure. But they can’t really enforce that. Just like you can’t enforce that in tornado alley or high flood zones. It’s just a way of life that you surrender yourself to if you live in these kinds of places. The residents know this.
The part where the soldier was taking a photo of the lava fountains looked so fake. It looked like it was from the movies. Also, why does Hawaii get all the action lately. Why can't Oregon get some volcano action. I'd love to see Newberry, south sister and especially Mt Mazama erupt.
I guess it could be the lighting,but I remember methane burning more like this: ruclips.net/video/8ewPRXqfv3w/видео.html From what I know methane burns pretty fast so I don't know how it would "pool" in cracks and only burn the fumes coming off the top, it should ignite all present methane...any thoughts?
Ryan Dugger I don’t know why but the part of your sentence... “a liquid substance called water” just sent me into a laughing frenzy for a good 2 minutes. Thank you for that 😂😂😂
The is no oil, natural gas, or coal 800Ft below PGV. There is however water from rain and the sea. Since lava is near by some gases from the lava do mix with the water. Mainly hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide.
So when is it time to evacuate the island?.......all of us live near Volcanoes or fault lines.....When the creator awakens the earth, its judgement for the wicked.

Extensive soil analysis both above and below water by drilling & diving, mapping and testing, analyzing... Blah, Blah, Blah...(I'm not a geologist). BUT I DO KNOW WHAT SANDSTONE IS.

Enjoy, put a pillow under your butt ... You're gonna be In one spot for awhile.
All that lava is creating a massive ledge and heavy and is prone to fall into the sea. When combined with an underground low pressure pull of Puna into the sea by a larger eruption at Kīlauea then it will happen and fall or get pulled into the sea.
Michael Kenyon Hawai volcano is mountain. Not a volcanic tube straight up from ocean surface. How did it become a mountain? By constantly pouring out and spilling and piling up a huge base of a mountain. It must pile up and fall down to make more base.
g s while your correct in its formation, the odds of getting struck by lightning while simultaneously being attacked by a shark are higher than of the slump actually breaking off and falling into the ocean. It’s happened, but even in geologic timelines it’s a rare event.
g s see the problem is that there is literally nothing happening during this eruption that is out of the ordinary or could point to anything remotely like what your claiming. Why do you say it’s happening? Provide me any factual basis absent of personal opinion and I would love to entertain the thought.

What makes you think that they have not acknowledged that they live on a volcano? The whole island is made up of 5 volcanoes. The world knows this. No matter where in the world you live, you are taking the chance on one danger or another. Volcano, earthquakes, tornadoes, flooding, hurricanes. The list goes on and on. It is part of life.

The earth is always evolving and moving, This is just so beautiful and shows the planet is still young and active.

It's creating a range. O'ahu has two ranges..the Ko'olau & Waianae
I think we've seen the cameraman in the helicopter.... ENOUGH! 🤦🏼♂️😜
They build on the East side because it is the only affordable area for the locals.
Ahh a human voice. Thanx. That's more of a caring touch.
Amazing the blue gases - great photos Mahalo
Wow. Never expected it to get this far. Thought we would have 29 fissure that would dry up and go away. Lol

💞None of these people are anywhere NEAR THE ERUPTIONS!!!
NO MENTION OF THE GEO THERMAL PLANT OR UPDATE ON THE WELLS......?????
Barb Aranda they did a day ago it's fine.
They cannot reach the power plant. Access has been cut off by the lava. Lava will eventually cover it and burn it to the ground and the water will evaporate. when that happens nothing different than what is happening now will occur.
Were they actually fracking on the Hawaiian Island ?
NO
Thanks for all these great updates.
I can't help but notice at 0.32 that PGV is right at the top centre of all this. What have they been drilling and pumping there?
Thank you for the update.
I wonder about septic tanks and cess pools. Those are basically methane pockets trapped under ground. Now that the houses have burnt they no longer vent it into the air through the roof vents.

I got a methane pocket in my pants right now. It might erupt.
5:15 - So why haven't Algore and the Sierra Club sued the volcano?
HUH!?!?
you do realize that this island is made from five volcanos.... don't think it really matters where you build it is a coin toss
That article that got me started was February 2018
I agree that fissure 22 is going to be significant does everything seem significant it does to myself my question is does vulcanism in Iceland have the same troubles of methane blue flame possibility or is this the geothermal plant about to blow? Am I on the pulse
Yes methane is also created in iceland when a volcano erupts. Along with hydrogen sulfide, chlorine fluorine, and sulfur dioxide.
So methane detection could predict flow???
I think the USGS person was wrong, the blue flames are burning sulfur. The cracks have sulfur residues in daylight, and sulfur burns with a blue flame. It's not the first time blue sulfur burning lava has been spotted. Here's a guy who visited the road where the blue flames were seen a few days ago, the cracks were lined with sulfur deposits.

generally when we pass out methane it means your food is flowing and you need to poop
sulfur can also burn blue on volcanos.
I havnt heard what the insurance situation was or is for these homes.
Does anyone know if the burnt houses could have had insurance ?
Ray Watson nope not covered
Ray, at least their tax liability is zero on the property if it gets covered by lava, but if they took a loan out they owe. Unless they have insurance to cover the loss.
Darrell Grisham
Actually a lava flow on your property doesn’t relieve property taxes. You still own your property, even if you can’t get to it.
I don’t think you’ll find a mortgage company that took a loan on volcano homes. Cash only. (So I’ve been told)
If the house burns from fire they're covered but if they get contact with lava it's not covered. Volcanic cover insurance is hellish expensive
Megs Tristram Thanks Megs .
Thats what I expected. Some of them looked like they had put a lot of money up against a volcano.
It would have been very painfull, but after looking at that map with lava flows in the three previous periods, I really think they knew the risk.
Have they blame this on human carbon emissions yet?
#Aboverothschilds
Shouldn't they only build houses on the west side of the island?
cribcat 1 Well it doesn't make any sense to build any houses on the lower east rift zone.
Trainfan1055 there are Mouna Loa rift zones that could effect any part of the island depending which becomes active. Building on the leeward side doesn’t really promise anything.
People of Hawaii know this though. There are VERY few people who live big island that just magically didn’t think about the fact they live on a volcanically active island.
Trainfan1055
You pay your money and take your chances.
I think it’s cash only. No mortgage co. would take that bet.
room-360 I mean, sure. But they can’t really enforce that. Just like you can’t enforce that in tornado alley or high flood zones. It’s just a way of life that you surrender yourself to if you live in these kinds of places. The residents know this.

Wow...blue flames...red flames...amazing.
You live on a volcano and wonder why you have lava in your living room-george carlin
bij een nieuws flash vanmorgen,stond er toch dat de lava was gestopt ? vreemd !
Is the Hilina slip going to fall off?
ButchC130 god I hope so
Eric Brown Wouldn't that create a huge massive Tsunami?
Yes, butch. What's your point? Any displacement of water will cause large waves.
if the whole slip goes, it will cause a 1000ft wave. And you are ok with that?
This is the only question that really matters. Does anyone know if the vent zone correlates with where the slump is pulling away?
Wow it looks like the 4th of July.
Nice Methane explanation,
The part where the soldier was taking a photo of the lava fountains looked so fake. It looked like it was from the movies. Also, why does Hawaii get all the action lately. Why can't Oregon get some volcano action. I'd love to see Newberry, south sister and especially Mt Mazama erupt.
Lucian Spampinato because it is fake..look at those silly blue flames...they are all the exact same size.
I guess it could be the lighting,but I remember methane burning more like this:

From what I know methane burns pretty fast so I don't know how it would "pool" in cracks and only burn the fumes coming off the top, it should ignite all present methane...any thoughts?
Making America great again... Hawaii goin back to its original roots...... built from volcanic eruptions.
Is there flammable gases/liquids 8,000ft below PGV.
All but one wells are filled with a liquid substance called water now. Which can be very explosive if sealed and introduced to tremendous heat.
Ryan Dugger I don’t know why but the part of your sentence... “a liquid substance called water” just sent me into a laughing frenzy for a good 2 minutes. Thank you for that 😂😂😂

I still that methane
So when is it time to evacuate the island?.......all of us live near Volcanoes or fault lines.....When the creator awakens the earth, its judgement for the wicked.
