US-HAWAII-VOLCANO


This November 14, 2014 image released by the US Geological Survey shows the June 27th lava flow from the Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii as it remains active, with scattered breakouts upslope of the stalled flow front. This close up combination of activity near the transfer station, is shown by a normal photograph(L) and a thermal image. The thermal image shows the extent of active breakouts much more clearly than the naked eye. Two small breakouts around the transfer station (marked by two arrows) are obvious in the thermal image but difficult to see in the normal photograph. Hawaii County Mayor Billy Kenoi declared a state of emergency in September after the lava advanced to within a mile (1.6 kilometers) of a residential area known as the Ka'ohe Homesteads. US President Barack Obama signed a major disaster declaration on November 3 to unlock federal resources to help local emergency protective measures.
