Default LE resident has called in for rescue, lava has “engulfed” a property near Luana halfway between Kahukai and Leilani.

From a post on Puna web. Things are getting even more dicey in LE.

LE resident has called in for rescue, lava has “engulfed” a property near Luana halfway between Kahukai and Leilani.

Update: (again, from PW)

Helicopter attempting rescue.

Your over-wraught, faux offense is, however, disgusting in the extreme.

Nobody is accusing you of doing or not doing anything. Just observing that the event is receiving a lot more attention and discussion there, including live or nearly live updates, links to vids by public officials and Mick Kalber and others.
When you said “people here don’t care too much about that area” you were making a judgement. That is very very different than just observing.

It's an observation/possible explanation. You must have missed the "Perhaps" that lead off the sentence, and took it personally.

"Perhaps because it is Puna, and people here don't care too much about that area!"

Default Surrounded (almost)

What it looks like to be (almost) surrounded by lava.

This is reportedly the Lava Ocean Tours property on Pohoiki rd., but not confirmed.

Default Latest report from HVO

Latest from HVO - 23:35 HST update on 27th May:

https://volcanoes.usgs.gov/volcanoes...ea/status.html

"Fissures 7 and 8 remain the most active eruptive centers of the system and have been feeding lava flows that have advanced northeast onto PGV property. At about 7:00 PM HST, a fast-moving lava flow broke from this area and advanced rapidly to the north and west through the eastern portion of Leilani Estates. Several residents were evacuated in advance of the dangerous and fast-moving flows."
