Round 'n' round 'n' round she goes, and where she stops, nobody knows. Fortuna's Wheel and Madame Pele may have a lot in common.

Update: Swarm of earthquakes right under Kalapana.

OK, now in addition to all the quakes under Kalapana, there are a few just north of Kalapana, right along the rift zone. One of them from last night, registered as being on the surface (depth recorded at 0.0 miles).

The area of the rift zone is seen here:

you guys worry too much. The islands have been there for BILLIONS of years. It's not going anywhere any time soon. Sadly our lives are just a 'BLINK' in the evolution of creation of the islands ... It's a very slow process so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

UMMMM.... don't you mean 500 thousand years for the Island of Hawaii, and only MILLIONS of years for any of the other islands? Still a bunch of years, but nowhere near a Billion....

Is it flowing into the ocean now?
Have visitors on Tuesday for a week and would love to go down at night if it is flowing again.
anyone know where I can find out about ocean entry of the lava?
Thanks.

Nowhere near an ocean entry. Lava returned to Pu`u `O`o 21 days after the crater floor collapsed.
