This is interesting

But the white plume on the map designating where the lava flow began would now east of that? If so then we probably are right in the vog path here at the summit (across street from KCC at Volcano National Park and next to the golf course).
I hadn't thought about the lead leaching into our water before I read this page. The other places I rented (in Puna not up here)had swimming pool type catchments and platic gutters - all lead free stuff, except the tin roofs lol. This catchment tank is metal and old. I think I'd better check on this tap water filter they have installed under the sink to see if gets the lead out. Oh my. All this stuff I never thought about till I started reading this thread. We mainly drink bottled and county water but and we haven't lived here long enough to drink much from the filtered tap,but since April I've been using it for cooking.
