New volcanic fissure reported in Hawaii while residents brace for possible major eruption
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/05/14/new-volcanic-fissure-reported-in-hawaii-while-residents-brace-for-possible-major-eruption.html

A new volcanic fissure opened up Monday on Hawaii's Big Island -- bringing the total up to 19 -- as fears continue to grow that one of the world's most active volcanos is headed toward a major eruption.

Hawaii Civil Defense officials said the new fissure was located near the Lanipuna Garden Estates area, a northeastern side closest to the geothermal plant on the Big Island. The latest fissure is between fissures 15 and 16.

Civil Defense officials added that fissure 17, which opened over the weekend, is still active.

"A narrow lava flow has been generated and is slowly moving toward the ocean, which is about two miles away," the agency said. "There are no homes or roads threatened at this time."...

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Just as long the Yellowstone volcano doesn't explode, it's kosher.

I would be very nervous if I were on the big island.

I couldn't imagine it.  If you're not being buried under a volcano, you're wiped out by a Tsunami.

Oh great.  This could mean trouble.  They don't put out predictions of above average activity for this year every year after all.

That's a time bomb ticking as well. 

..."A MAJOR tectonic shift beneath the Yellowstone Supervolcano has been detected, sparking fears of a massive eruption that could cause widespread devastation across the planet.....

.......Increased activity above and below the surface at the US supervolcano has set off alarm bells for those who are monitoring the site for a potential eruption.

Multiple earthquakes at the National Park followed by a fourth eruption of its usually dormant geyser has led to speculation about the world’s largest supervolcano...........

..........The geyser Steamboat, which had been dormant since September 2014, suddenly erupted on March 15th, April 19th, April 27th and May 4th.

According to Fox News, a swarm of more than 200 earthquakes struck Yellowstone over two weeks, which indicates a shifting of the major tectonic plates beneath the Earth’s surface.

A Fox reporter said two out of the three warning signs of an imminent eruption has caused panic among visitors to the site.

Those warning signs include increased seismic activity, ground deformation and an increased gas outlet at the surface.

While seismic activity and gas outlet has increased during 2018, this has not been to a significant extent and without any sign of ground deformation..............
