Wherever/whenever the next ERZ eruption occurs, hopefully the County will have had time to complete their condemnation/evacuation/tear-down procedures before it hits. Once the area is cleared out, there will be little or no cause for unpleasant interactions etc., between the county (or hot, chewy lava or toxic gases) and citizens. A classic win-win situation.
Yeah, sure thing. Same deal with a Mauna Loa north rift zone eruption- everyone will be cleared out of Hilo and the town will be torn down []
I'd imagine an up slope rift eruption of Kilauea would be most likely for the future.
If you have an opinion one way or another, I suggest you call either or both and express it. The ladies that answered were very nice.
As far as where the next "event" will occur, I agree that it will probably be in the ERZ, but couldn't offer an opinion up or down-slope or sooner/later.
