Kilauea Pau. ?
#1
What's next for Kilauea? The lava flow has stopped, but Kilauea remains active and still the #1 Most Threatening on USGS's Top 161 (list of American volcanoes). An interesting observation by Tina Neal - - when an eruption recommences, it generally will be in a different location. Although that's certainly not a prediction, as a probability does that mean living in the LERZ is statistically, relatively, and at least temporarily, safer? Keep 'em guessing Madam Pele.

Kilauea has produced no lava on the surface of Hawaii's Big Island for three months -- neither at its summit, nor at its other vents, the lead scientist at US Geological Survey's Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said Tuesday.
When volcanoes stop erupting magma for that long, the next eruption generally will happen in a different spot, marking a new eruptive event, said Tina Neal, the observatory's scientist in charge.

Believable. Madam Pele blew her load.

How long is temporarily? Shorter, longer, than the time between the '55 and '60 eruptions?
