I think it closed on day 3 of the 21 day eruption and opened soon after it was pau.
Fissure 4 has ceased erupting. At current rate of progress, approximately 12 days for the flow to reach highway.

Looks like USGS sprung for the unlimited plan - now a live video cam on fissure 3.

Thanks for the Fissure 3 link ironyak.
'Tis the season! And much more interesting than the burning fireplace logs they broadcast on cable TV around this time of year.

Thank you USGS! This is the exactly what I was hoping for. Volcano geek. Watched Iceland, watched La Palma, now I get to watch Mauna Loa. To my wife’s similar reaction. Who cares? Me.

I didn't realize it until you phrased it that way. I'm lucky enough to have witnessed St. Helens, Kilauea, and now Mauna Loa all erupt with my own eyes. And while Leilani was still Kilauea, it was almost like getting a bonus volcano!
RE: Mauna Loa erupting - My 2 cents - 12-04-2022
By far, the most spectacular eruption experience for me was flying around the 1500' fountains at Puu o'o'. At night!!!
Twice!
Maybe not the smartest thing I've ever done, but risk-reward, right?

"kalakoa - Wait for road to be destroyed, declare emergency, apply for Federal bailout.
Yep - nothing easier than taking no action and letting others pay for the consequences in the form of nationalized debt to be possibly paid in the future at reduced cost through monetary inflation - financialization for the win i.e. "you can ching, ching, ching, cash in on this tragedy!""
It's state highway built with federal funds.
That's why the state sent 4 people with EMA over from Oahu. Our US rep asked for help already.
The county shouldn't be involved.

"300 years to the north" is not a typo.

Sorry, not interested in this turning into another round of back-and-forth with TomK being an insufferable git, but have at it if you insist.
