I noticed, looking at the lines of descent, that the area around where the vents are currently, I'll call it a breakpoint in the topography. If the vents are high (west) enough, they'll flow toward the highway and break left toward Waikaloa. Little lower, they'll break right and head towards Hilo. Assuming they are on the Mauna Kea side of the rift zone, which looks clear from the overflight photos they are.
Still don't have anything that tells me precisely where the vents are now, elevation and west/east wise. Hoping USGS tells us soon the elevation of the vents soon.
