"Why would someone actively put themselves at risk by living in an area with such potential danger," my wife asks from our home in the heart of tornado alley.
Scary. if you've been there you now how much of the crater wall sank in, we're talking the side of a mountain that happens to be in a big pit. Very Scary Earth Movements
yes. i agree. so much earth just sinking into the volcano. i just can't comprehend it. I have only been at the foot of Arenal Volcano in Costa Rica and that was impressive. This would be something to see for sure.
I was just thinking how this guy had a nice voice for news. If you listen closely you can hear some weird stuff in-between words but not too much. I think its the natural pause's in the speech that makes it seem so real
I feel like I'm learning so much about volcanos from watching this I would have described everything I saw as lava pouring out Now I see a new spatter cone with fresh dark lava that surrounds both the fountaining vent as well as the turbulent outflow channel
Hawaii is such a beautiful and fascinating place. I have always dreamed of seeing the big island. The last two years watching what’s been happening with Kilauea have been absolutely riveting
You guys do a great job reporting the activity at Kilauea. I enjoy hearing the sounds of the eruption and other natural sounds created during the event. Your break down of the current status is in simple concise terms. And I love that you DON'T use footage from different days compiled together, or like some channels an entirely different eruption or worse a different volcano for increased lava sensation cuz yeah, yeah, lava more lava...lol I've been a subscriber since the 2018 eruption and have enjoyed your channel and your reports from Hawaii. Thank you for your dedication in providing professional quality content for your viewers.
Great work. I went to the big Island, Hawaii, in 2005 and my friend Mark the lifeguard took us on his jetski to where the lava pours into the ocean. You could hear the lava cool into rocks underwater and tumble down like an avalanche deep deep into the Pacific Ocean. The steam was spiraling up with the intense heat. The sound of it all was incredible.
Great update - that flow on the side of the crater has increased dramatically since the last video. That time lapse of the crater sinking was cool! Amazing to see this with context of what it looked like in the past too! Great Video and I look forward to your next update!
A wonderful brief history of the caldera. When I first visited in the 1990s it never occurred to me the caldera could collapse but I’m glad to have had the opportunity to walk into the caldera and look down into Halemaumau while it was dormant.
I visited in 2001. Drove on the summit road, parked at the overlook above Halemaumau. I see parts of the road and all of the parking lot are inside the caldera now.
Man would I live to see a detailed history of this vulcano. Eruptions in the past, interesting facts and stories. The way you present is really well done and your voice is very pleasant to listen to
Awesome, thanks for the video. When we were all students @ UH-Hilo, our roommates worked up at the Volcano Observatory, when an eruption was imminent, they would call us so we could all come up and watch. Thanks to Joe Sterling, Tracy Chapman and Annie Freeman for those memories. Big Island was much different in the '70s and '80s.
While the weather is always unpredictable here in Michigan, we don't have to worry about natural disasters, rarely ever. No Tsunamis, Earthquakes, Tornadoes, Volcano eruptions, etc. We have, of course, had tornados and stuff before, but it's not a common occurrence. So I love watching new about stuff like this. It's so interesting, becuase I have never seen anything like this in real life. And I kind of want to. Yes, I might be a little crazy.
I remember being at the Greatful Dead concert in Portland when Mt Saint Helens Blew..odd enough it blew at about the time they were singing 🔥 on the mountain.
Love your video...always so beautiful and very informative...with great appreciation for sharing your knowledge and sharing your kindness....I wish I could witness the beauty but due to asthma i I stay away and enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing the beautiful video and updates...good job!
When the lower penetration was free to flow, upper penetration flow was low. As the rising lava lake level puts more head pressure on the lower (fountaining) penetration, lava flow through the upper penetration should be expected to increase.
