Mauna Loa Eruption Lava Cuts Off Road, New Fissure Opens (Nov. 29, 2022)

[@leilanik.3918]

We knew it was coming with all the earthquakes leading up to the eruption, similar to the 2018 flow in Leilani Estates. Auwe! We are packed and ready to leave if need to. Aloha Madame Pele 🌋❤️🌺

Drove up Saddle a couple of hours ago but decided to turn around at the 10 mi. marker above Hilo since everything was so overcast and you couldn't see anything. This was around 3 pm this afternoon. When I stopped to turn around the smell of sulphur was overwhelming.

You should NEVER go into the gas, what you smell may not be the deadly bit. The acids produced can do damage..

[@stonew1927]

Yea, I went up there this morning before dawn to get some amazing shots. Got much closer but I couldn't smell any sulphur. Really depends on which way the wind is blowing. I've walked up to lava flows before and I'm still alive. Just have to use common sense...

They often take such a philosophical attitude...but I know the 2018 eruption hit some vulnerable people - people for whom losing their home was devastating to their health and ability to be safe and well. And that was just terrible. Mauna Loa is such an amazing feature of the planet. It is breath taking to think about, let alone see in action. Hotspot vulcanism is easier to spectate, as it is so much less likely to harm people and other living creatures. That strange giant rumbling awake - it is hard not to be stirred by it.

The Mayor with a smirky smile on his face said this is the best case scenario that the lava is on the north east side is Hogwash ...

Iceland eruption is (nearly) at sea level. It is only a few mile hike off the road, you have cell service, and a well established trail network. This eruption is on top of a windswept 11,000ft (3,000m+) mountain. Which will cause a fair number of average unhealthy Americans to contract altitude sickness walking too. Plus the whole nearby area is an undeveloped national park to preserve nature. Nothing but rough recently formed volcanic rock without well maintained trails. Cell service is also spotty.

[@rogeryow1858]

😆🤣😂 I must question how the record Earth rotation speed increase has effected the possibility of Earth Crust Displacement and the effects on deep earthquake activities and volcanic eruptions? I site the recent Tong eruption and deep earthquake activities that spread through the volcanic fields around plate boundaries. If an ice-skater holding their hands away from their body rotates then pulling their hands closer to their bodies, rotation speed increases. Being that many gigatons of ice buildup towards the polar regions of both hemispheres, we note the recent record cold in Antarctica as this region should be going into summer. My supposition is cold reduces ice melt and allows many gigatons of ice buildup at the polar region. A man can run 30 feet a second. The equator speed of travel is over 1,000 miles an hour. Even a millisecond of increase of equator speed is relevant upon segmented continental boundaries that have subduction zones. Many broken plates acting independently with forces of natural laws of physics should exaggerate the slow natural process for minimal Earth Crust Displacement and continental migration. This form of acceleration should be apparent as the TONGA eruption had a cooling effect upon the Southern Hemisphere. As the Southern Hemisphere goes into summer without sufficient ice melt upon Antarctica the Earth rotation speed increase should be notable as the polar regions of the North compounds the effects of influence by the many gigatons of ice buildup. I must assume that the rotation speed will continue to increase as the Northern Hemisphere ice buildup is just now underway. Lastly, what came first, the chicken 🐔or the egg 🥚😳 as, another TONGA sized eruption could be possible as it may relate to Earth rotation speed increase contributing to more Earth crust displacement. 😀

[@michaeldeierhoi4096]

Mauna Loa is a shield volcano and as such it produces a low viscosity lava because of a lower level of silica relative to other kinds of lava. Basalt is the primary form of lava produced by Hawaiian volcanoes. Basaltic lava flows sometimes 15 -20 kilometers or more depending on the terrain like the one Iceland last year, Geldingadilur. And because it flows so easily it does NOT clog up volcano vents allowing gases to accumulate. That generally happens with more viscous lava such as at Mt St Helens in 1980. So in other words Mauna Loa is not the type of volcano to just explode.
