Lava is finally predicted to hit the first road in my nearest town, Pahoa, by tomorrow. After creeping slowly the past few weeks it advanced 1/4 mile overnight and has about that much to go to hit that road and possibly take our dump and recycling center. It sucks.

Is it possible to erect a birm to contain and/or divert the flow from populated areas? Has this ever been attempted?

There have been some attempts over the years, mostly with little success because of the sheer volume. There is also the issue that if they block it and it finds a new path to destroy homes and business it would not have hit if just left to flow. The reality is it could flow in this direction for decades, just as it mostly flowed in a different direction for 30 years. It's something like the equivalent of 1500 cement trucks full of lava per day. It's already dramatically impacted life around here and nearly 1000 have moved away to be somewhere closer to Hilo and away from the flow. They've also spent millions on alternate routes so we won't be cut off from all roads out, but they're all slow gravel roads so far, and they may well get covered eventually.

My friend called this the Last Minute Power Pole dance. This is our local utility frantically trying to install new taller poles than can be secured to survive the lava flow that is 1 day away from overtaking this road.

Fortunately I'm 10 miles from this on the other side of a ridge so my neighborhood won't be directly impacted. Though our only town here will be split in half and destroyed to some degree. They're already closing schools in the pathway and sending kids to other schools miles away. It's all kind of surreal.

Anything can happen. This video explains a lot about typical lava flows in my area.

A few weeks ago I was in Sicily and got a bus ride up Mt Etna. Called Mungibeddu in Siciian. Had to walk thru the clouds for the final distance up to the rim. Peeked over and saw no smoke or fumes or lava. No tremors and interior cracks. But you never know, cause this is an ACTIVE volcano. Last eruptions were in 2013 and 2014 and are ongoing.

Some of the group on the bus crawled down the crater. Enlarge the pic to see the cooled off swirls of the last lava flow down at the bottom.

Where I live, we have no curbside pickup, so thousands of us would take our trash and recycling to this transfer station. Obviously no more.

Bring the trash up there and dump it on the hot lava. Sounds good?
