But seriously... Mauna Loa
I thought about that possibility too. She hasn't gone in a little while. Overdue I think.
So if that is the spot, who gets put in the crosshairs? Waiakea uka part of Hilo? The flow came just a couple miles from Waiakea Uka in the 80s eruption. How about Kau? Also I know that Hawaiian Acres and it's neighbors were on that "Mauna Loa" part of the HVO map that Glinda shared once, but I failed to relocate. Maybe later.
But what type of geology/volcanology geekometery needs to happen for the lava to shift to coming out of Mauna Loa? Do some plates need to shift? Shifting plates and earthquakes?
