Mauna Loa is the world’s largest active The volcano is located in Hawaii, it’s starting to erupt for The first time in nearly 40 years ago, resulting in volcanic ash and debris falling nearby, according to US authorities.
The eruption began late Sunday night in Caldera summit of volcano on The US Geological Survey said. It said early Monday that lava flows were contained within the summit area It did not threaten neighboring communities.
However, lava flows in the top region visible from Kona. there currently There is no indicator of no migration of The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said the eruption led to a fault zone in a permit. The fault zone is the place where the mountain splits, and the rocks are cracked and relatively weak easier for magma to emerge.
How long does a volcano erupt and is it possible? cause Lava to flow into populated areas of Mel Corbett, a spokesman for the US Geological Survey, said the island is impossible to predict.
“But I can tell you, we are in Constant communication now with Hawaii civil defense and they provide updates for community members,” she said.
Although he noticed that there is no pointer of Lava coming out of the civic summit defense The agency said it had opened shelters in Kailua-Kona and Pahala because it has reports of people Self-evacuation along the coast south of Kona.
Multiple pictures appeared on social media Indicates lava activity outside of caldera. At this time, no lava movement into a fault zone has been confirmed.
The US Geological Survey warned residents of risk From Mauna Loa lava flows should review their preparations to explode. Because of newly spike in Earthquakes at the top of which volcano last arouse in 1984.
parts of The Big Island was subject to an ashfall advisory issued by the National Weather Service in Honolulu that said up To the quarter- inch (0.6 cm) of Ash can accumulate in Some areas.
Mauna Loa one of Five volcanoes form together up Big Island of Hawaii, the southernmost island in Hawaiian archipelago.
Mauna Loa rising 13,679 feet (4,169 meters) above sea level, it is the largest neighbor of Kilauea Volcano, which erupted in residential neighborhood and destroyed 700 homes in 2018. Some of Its slopes are much steeper than Kilauea’s, so when it erupts, its lava can flow faster.
During the 1950 eruption, the mountain’s lava traveled 15 miles (24 kilometers) into the ocean in less than three hours.
