As a point of note, the HVO scientist in last Thursday's Pahoa presentation (Steve Brantley) was remarking, in fact, how closely the lava from Kahauale'a 1 and 2 and June 27th flows has been following the predictive blue lines.
Please feel free to watch this very informative presentation on the Big Island Video News page:

Also, look at this map and you will see for yourself that each lobe terminates at a blue line:

Also note that there are no blue lines in the area where the lava exited the crack, likely due to the unpredictability of the terrain that was noted.
I predict that lenders and insurance companies will begin utilizing the blue line information to make business decisions regarding property in Puna (if they aren't already).
