Halema`uma`u rockfall update: Lava wins again!

A quick update on the rockfall in the Halema`uma`u (got it right this time!) Crater at Kilauea. Last week a rockfall blocked the vent that had been glowing for most of the year from the lava below, but the debris clogged the vent, producing minor accidental tephra explosion.

Well, it didn’t take long for lava to retake the “clogged” vent. New video from HVO shows lava bubbling back up through the clogged vent (see the video in the above link). The lava has formed a small lava and even produced some spatter as well. This would seem to indicate that the lava is, in fact, not draining from the summit and I (and others) suggested when the rockfall occurred last week. This new activity was somewhat unexpected as HVO released an update this morning (July 6) noting both deflation and a reduction in sulfur dioxide emissions from the Halema`uma`u Crater. Just shows how quickly lava can retake a vent even after what seemed like a significant “clogging”.

    Friends this is a very hectic process of selecting the finalists. Specially when the nominations are so many. Its better they take their own time and get the right ones on the final lists. – Madam, there’s no such thing as a tough child if you parboil them first for seven hours, they always come out tender.

    You may have not intended to do so, but I think you might have managed to express the state of mind that a lot of people are in. The sense of wanting to support, but not knowing how or where, is a thing a lot of us are going through.

    I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
