US-HAWAII-VOLCANO
This October 26, 2014 image provided by the US Geological Survey(USGS) shows a palm tree surrounded by lava from the Kilauea volcano as it advances across the grassy pasture below the Pahoa cemetery in Hawaii. Smoldering lava from a slow-erupting volcano has reached within yards (several meters) of homes on Hawaii's Big Island, emergency officials said October 27 as villagers braced to evacuate. The lava flow from the Kilauea volcano has been threatening nearby homes for weeks, and was 100 yards (91 meters) from the nearest house by early Monday. The lava front was moving at between 10-15 yards (9-14 m) an hour. "Based on the current flow location, direction and advancement, residents in the flow path were placed on an evacuation advisory," said the County of Hawaii's Civil Defense force in an online update.
