It's too early to tell what the lava is going to do, but recent events have shown us that well thought out disaster preparedness will help immensely.
People talk of the flow crossing Hwy 130. If this happens, I don't think a makai evacuation route will be practical. If it crosses 130, it has a good chance of continuing to the ocean.
The suggested Chain of craters route seems viable for now, but will increase the trip for Hilo supplies by quite a few miles; And may take time to implement.
If 130 is cut off, will PGV continue supplying electricity to Puna Makai?
Things I will be stocking up on and doing gradually over the coming days/weeks;
Gasoline for our generator.
More jugs for potable water.
Water filters.
Canned and dried food.
Put in more veggies.
Participating in Neighborhood Activities.
Even if the flow stops tomorrow, i feel like I'll be ready for the next; Hurricane, Earthquake, Tsunami, or Japanese sneak attack(Hey, I'ts happened).
Please suggest anything I've forgotten.
