Pahoaの町の手前で停止した溶岩流は

沈静化に見えたのですが

遥か西の 町から3.9マイル離れた丘の上を

じわじわ北に向かって登っていて

この1週間で約1200mほど進んで

丘を越えたところから東北に進路を変えると

再び町に向かって流れてきます。

上(北)に向かって ゆるやかなスロープを

9月に登ったピンク色と同様に登っています

 問題は黄色の印の場所から

まっすぐ北に動くか 北東に流れて行くか。。。

遥かに西のPu’u O’oから吹きだした溶岩が

森を焼き尽くして進んでいることは

写真でも良く確認できます。

溶岩流の進路

Hawaii County Civil Defense Eruption Update from Monday, November 26, 2014 This morning?? assessment shows that the upslope breakouts remain active. The breakouts are located approximately 3.2 miles upslope of the Apa?? Street area and consist of surface breakouts and breakouts along the edges or margins of the flow pad. The active and most down slope breakout is located approximately 3.2 miles up slope of the Apa?? street area and along the north side or margin of the flow pad. Presently, all breakout activity does not pose an immediate threat to area communities and the flow activity will continue to be monitored. Residents in the down slope areas will be kept informed of any changes and the flow status and advancement. The Pahoa Village Road between Apa?? Street and the Post Office Road will remain closed and limited to area residents only. Access to the businesses and commercial areas of the Pahoa town can be made through the Pahoa Village Road at the intersection of Highways 130 and 132 and the Post Office Road. We apologize for any inconvenience the road closure may be presenting with and remind everyone that the Pahoa town center and businesses are open and accessible. The reopening of the Pahoa Village Road is planned for later today and an updated message will be made to inform the community of the road opening. Civil Defense and public safety personnel will continue to maintain close observations of flow activity. Additional updates will be posted as conditions change. We would like to thank everyone for your patience and understanding and your cooperation and assistance is greatly appreciated.
