I think I understand, although it is hard for me to picture the rift zone, and what the top of it is. I thought the top of the rift zone was just above the Pahoa-Kalapana Hwy. That's what I have been telling everybody. If I have the location of the rift zone correct, then you are saying the flow is coming north of that. That means that the flow could come north of Pahoa and cross Hwy 130. That wouldn't be good for anyone.
Diverting might be difficult because if they divert, it seems like someone would be in the path, no matter where it goes.
I will keep my fingers crossed.
I notice some graphics above. Is there some way of knowing, on an updated basis, where the lava is at the moment in relation to the rest of Puna? That's what I am having trouble visualizing.
Perhaps when I come over next week I can go to the general vicinity and check it out? Where would I go? Glenwood?
